Witches
At night when it's all dark and scary,
I peek from my covers quite warm,
On the wall are shadows so tall,
Pointed hats, capes and noses all hairy,
My mum says I must be dreaming,
When I spy witches high on the ceiling,
But they keep me awake with the noise that they make,
All that ear-piercing cracking and screaming,
They love casting spells late at night,
Their cauldron glows with light,
It bubbles and spits slimy green bits,
And gives me a teddy bear at night.
By L. Carr.

Halloween
Halloween night I went out with my friend. We got a lot of sweets. Then we went to his house and had a party. It was fun. On the day before we got our holiday's we had a party. It was good fun.

Fire Fighters
Third class, went to see the Fire Fighters base a few weeks ago. This was in conjunction with the 'Children's Book Festival' when we attended a talk by Donal Reilly, the Fire Officer in Ballina Library. We watched a film about Fire Safety and another called BACKDRAFT. Afterwards we went to the fire station where Mossie Ryan gave us a guided tour around the place. We saw the Fire trucks and hoses, ladders and other equipment. We saw a fireman who came back from a call-out. He showed us his gear, his special jacket, trousers and helmet. I think firemen are cool because they save lives.

Trip to the vet
We went to the library this month to listen to a local vet. She showed us some animal x-rays. We learned the following.
· She showed us how vets mend domestic animals broken bones.
· Dogs should be fed twice a day. They should also be brought for a walk.
· There are special toys that are safe for animals to play with.
