Charlotte
My name is Charlotte and I am a small, quiet girl. I am helpful and I am a school reporter for Totternhoe Times. I am kind and I am a vice captain. I like dolphins they are my favourite animal. I have silky, soft hair. I have brown eyes and I am not the only school reporter. Jessica, Harry, Oscar and Lilia are also reporters. We will be some good school reporters, hopefully. So far, I love my job. I can’t wait for our first trip, it will be such a good job. I am quite a good swimmer although I sometimes get scared when I can’t reach the bottom of the pool. Lilia
Hi, my name is Lilia and I like horses, I go and check on my horse every day, well mostly every day. My horse's name is Matilda and she is so cute, I want to cuddle her all the time. I also like sparkles and glitter because they're so shiny and beautiful, you can also create patterns with them. There can never be too much sparkles or glitter. I think I have a kind, helpful and mostly caring sense of humour. I am nearly never nasty or horrible. I am also a good and special friend, I have got a special friend she`s called Grace she`s the best BFF. At my school, I love arts week because it`s fun and creative. At my school I am Water house captain which means I am the nominated captain for the house I’m in. My favourite animals are an arctic fox, a normal fox and horses. Terriffic Totternhoe by Harry and OscarOn Thursday the 27th of September we went to Cedars to play a football tournament. Our reward was coming 4th place. Oscar and Harry both scored 1 goal. We won 1 match that was 2-0 and we lost 3 matches. In the 2-0 victory Oscar scored a penalty. Harry scored in an open goal. The referees didn’t tell us that one of their goals was a free-kick not a penalty, so we stood behind the ball so they won 3-0. It was a great day and we think we worked well as a team.

The Fantastic Faith Tour by Charlotte and Lilia. Interviews by Jessica
On Wednesday 3rd October, Year 3 and 4 went to Bedford to visit a Gurdwara, a Church and a Mosque. When we got to the Mosque, we took off our shoes at the entrance and put them into boxes. A man led us into a room which had a blue carpet. The carpet was designed to look like lots and lots of prayer mats and they all faced East because that’s where Mecca is. We learnt about the different prayer positions, the call to prayer and lots of the rules they had to follow.
Next, we visited a Christian church, just down the road from the mosque. When we got inside a man introduced himself. We learnt about the baptismal font and what special rules Jesus taught. We searched around the church to find Christian objects and special things about the church. We found the cross and the crucifix. The stained glass windows showed lots of different saints and special people.
Finally, we visited the Gurdwara which was like a palace. We washed our hands and had our lunch, which had to be vegetarian food. We were told about the ten Gurus and why Sikhs were called Sikhs. This is because Guru means ‘teacher’ and Sikh means ‘learner’.
Lots of children thought it was ‘good fun’, ‘exciting’ and ‘very intriguing’. Everybody who we asked thought the Gurdwara was the best bit.
