CreateIt Awards 2014!

Create-it Awards Ceremony By Charlotte & Sienna:
When we entered William Brooks High School for the first time, we headed straight to the cafe for the heavenly (free) cookies while we waited for the theatre to open. We then lined up to be first in line as soon as the theatre opened: we ended up getting front row seats and a great view of the screen. The evening began with a safety introduction and a very long and tiring one it was! After that, it finally began. They started with the the EYEFS ( 'My ICT creation' category). Next it was Key Stage 1 animation, then us! Sadly we didn't win, but our parents thought we should - the animation that did win was a bit weird because it was called Vampire Mouse VS Mature Cheddar Cheese! Fortunately we did come second place and went home with two prizes each. In one of the categories somebody had entered it twice and was against himself and won!

The Frozen People - part two...

Sienna has written a second part to her 100wc this week (you can read the first part here!)

THE FROZEN PEOPLE PART 2:

The vicious doll . . . was a brutal trap. After it hauled me away from the dear, loving home I've known all my life.  I finally plucked up the courage to ask it: "What do you want from me!" I screeched, tears brimming from the corners of my eyes. "WHAT!"

"My life," its eyes were an ice grey with a sharp enough voice to cut through steel.

"HUH!" I was bewildered: smashing the window brutally, taking the life of an innocent person; just for me? The doll grinned at me grotesquely, "you don't get it do you?" she snarled, spraying sloppy spit over me. It continued and dragged me helplessly to the end of the tranquil road, golden light spilled onto a formidable cell with impenetrable iron walls. I was pushed in there, brutally being forced to listen to the piercing shriek ringing high then drowning down below.

Swimming Strokes: Ellie Simmonds

As she waited nervously for the starter's gun to fire, her heart pounded rapidly like heavy footsteps on a hard stone floor. Every breath was tense as her goose-bumped body was held in a professional starting position. Every second built up a strong feeling of tenseness, as the strong odour of chlorine filled the pool. Everyone was all set and ready and then the starter's gun fired unexpectedly...

Each stroke pulled her along. She remembered what her coach had said: "Concentrate, lose yourself in the swimming..."

Before she knew it, it was over.

Ellie Simmonds had been so lost in her swimming that she hadn't realised she was literally one second faster than the rest - a new world record! The trophy was hers...

Izzy's title-winning goal!

As sticky sweat falls down my chest, my heart beats like wild horses stampeding through darkness. One more goal. Just one more -I beg. Here I go. I can hear the roaring crowd cheering me on,silence came upon the massive stadium. I heard a soft familiar voice who was it? I look closely and realized it was my Mum my beautiful Mum. “Come on Aguero!” shouted my dad!  I tried to convince myself with warming thoughts : like Man City winning the championship, and me scoring the winning goal! I can do it, I told myself. I took three steps back. Nervous yet confident, hopeful and determined I felt my sweltering,perspiring ,short,black hair. I looked straight at the keeper he did an off putting grin. The whistle went - it was my time. I took a big run up, and boom, I whacked the ball... The keeper took a massive leap to the left of the goal; the ball went straight over him and hit the crossbar. Oh no! I said to myself, but wait, it had bounced in - I did it! The crowd went wild, we had won. Some people started doing the Mexican wave. All of my team ran to me and suddenly I was off the ground, from up there I saw my mum and she blew a kiss to me. My dad was thrilled. My coach walked up to me and handed me a gold, shiny trophy.

Serving for Gold, by Molly W...

As sticky sweat pours down my face I still await for my name to be called out, my heart is beating hard against my ribcage it feels like a woodpecker, pecking my skin until it draws blood…

Then. “Andy Murray for Great Britain” boomed the speakers. It was time. My blood ran cold and I started shaking, I tried to convince myself with warming thoughts:  “you can do this, lets make everyone proud”. The cold goosebumps lifted the soft hairs of my arm, my legs wobbled like jelly as I reached for my tennis racket and held it firmly. I strode on until I reached my destination and paused into my position...

Then I realised the ball, it shot into the sky and split through the air I’m finally my comfort zone.

By Molly

The Last Goal, by Adom B...

3-3. One more, I pray, please just the last stupid goal the champions league at stake. The captain bellowed, “come on lads we have to do this!” We all eagerly stared at our amazing opposition: they hit us with their glaring eyes. It's almost like time stops except the stadium and then out of the blue our best striker. GOAL!!! Everybody went wild the coach went round like a psychotic monkey.

Lily B's 100wc - week 25...

Katherine hated living with her mysterious grandfather. Ever since her Mum died her life changed completely and turned into a disastrous streak of miserable events. First, going to live with a man that she'd never met. Then, finding a spooky chest in the basement that nobody was allowed to touch. Katherine awoke.
"Another miserable day of yelling and screaming." she thought. Suddenly, she felt a stroke of relief as she remembered that her grandfather was away. Katherine decided to go and look in the chest in the basement. The stairs creaked, her heart pounded as she nervously opened the door. Foul winds pushed it wide open and there it was. The bronze chest stood in front of her. Katherine slowly walked forwards. She was sure something terrible would be inside, but when she lifted the lid, she was relieved. It was only a pair of old ballet shoes! Katherine was amazed that grandfather still cared about his dear wife. She was a dancer and left her ballet shoes to him in her will. Who would have thought a creepy old beast like him would treasure such special memories? Once her grandfather had returned home from a day fishing at the murky old beach, Katherine ran up and gave him a massive hug.
"What are you doing?" he questioned.
"Oh, well I looked in the chest, and I think you are really sweet."

Sienna's 100wc - week 25...

THE FROZEN PEOPLE

I got out of bed slumping onto the mouldy, damp wood with an ear-piercing shriek. Suddenly there was a head-splitting scream clearer than broad daylight, I listened intently, it didn't sound like anyone I knew. Sprinting down the stairs, I hurled myself into the the kitchen then just stood there ,mouth hanging open. There was a broken window with sharp smithereens of glass scattered over the floor. People were standing inside the house close to crumpling to the floor also there was a doll . . . dressed exactly like me!. The only other thing was a rusty ramshackle wooden box: trembling, I heaved the lid up gingerly - inside was a dilapidated metal box. At that moment the spooky room filled with smoke wafting around the cracked shards of glass then a eternal spirit came down from the steamy lights she lifted the lid gingerly then dissolved into nothing, I crept up to it, but a knife came whistling past my ear and ice cold steel kissed pearly human flesh and the stranger fell to the floor gasping for breath. Magically, like a switch, the mysterious doll came to life then dragged me screaming into the howling night air.

Abi's 100wc - week 25...

In the year 2000 Ally was wandering about her room, staring at her disgusting candy pink wall when she heard drums. “It sounds like it’s under the floorboards!” she told herself. ‘It’s like the film ‘Jumanji’.she thought. “Mum can I borrow the shovel. Please!” she called down the long windy stairs.
“Yes darling. It’s in that horrible wooden shed at the end of the garden” her Mum answered back in her sweet,soft voice. So Ally ran down to the old wooden shed at the bottom of her woodland garden. She grabbed the shovel and ran back to her ugly pink room. As soon as she had got through her bedroom door and had slammed it shut she started digging up the floorboards. In a matter of minutes she found a beautifully patterned,wooden box. Without even thinking she opened the beautiful box and was sucked in. She has never been seen again.

Jaden's 100wc - week 25...

One stormy night Lucy was in her room and suddenly her box began to glow. She nervously went to the box, but when she lifted the lid it sucked her into a magical place with a  lovely dragon. She began to climb onto the dragon: it gave her  a lift to  a wonderful castle. But  something began to happen - she  closed  her eyes and opened them and she was back home - what a  wonderful adventure!
(With some help from Mr K!)

i was in my bedroom and suddenly i hear a loud noise which was very sinister , i looked at it for about 30 seconds as soon as i turned away something popped out at me as she lifted the lid i  heard i heard a slight crack so i carried on but when i popped out it made me very scared … i was brave so i went back to it and it was only a dancing ballerina , i thought in my head that i shouldn’t be scared of something as little as that although it was very scary at the time .

Lydia's 100wc - week 25...

One vibrant,cheerful day, Sofia ran outside in her spotty blue dress and chased her Labrador dog,Rebecca, Hours passed, but her good-natured smile stayed. Until SUDDENLY Rebecca  ran as quick as a flash of frightening lightning,  into the bushes and started to make a fearsome roar.
Sofia ran into the bushes and there was a peculiar box with a shimmering lid and a body that made the crown jewels look bad.But when she lifted the lid two red eyes appeared from the depths of the box.
"Sofia, Rebecca lunch time!!!!!!" shouted her mum.
Quickly, but silently, she put the lock tightly on so the brute couldn't get out.  

Later that night, nightmares flooded her brain of what might be lurking out in the wilderness. She secretly sneaked out into the garden, and tiptoed to behind the bushes to face her fears of the creature but now she is never to be seen!!!

                             !!!!!!!!! Beware of behind the bushes!!!!!!!!!!!

"Hansel and Gretel we stumbling though the woods, hungrily eating a McDonalds. Hansel was leaving chip crumbs so they could find their way backstage." reported the narrator of the play.
"Cut!" screamed the director through a megaphone.
"Don't be stupid! They weren't eating a McDonalds, they were eating a KFC! Action!"
"Hansel, we're lost!"
Then the narrator piped up again, "Suddenly, a wolf came growling out of nowhere!"
"Cut!" yelled the director, who was really getting annoyed now. "We're reading the wrong script! Go away wolf!"
The wolf sadly walked back to his own scene and never went near a burger again...

Lydia's 100wc - week 24...

Once upon a time. BORING!!!!!!!!! Let's tell the real tale: Rapunzel was perched in her tedious bedroom over her dad's kebab shop, when it came to her. "I think I need to grow my hair!"

Years passed and her hair grew longer, but one day it got so long people could climb her sleek, flowing hair. Later that day a hooded figure came along tugging her hair like a caiman eating a jaguar. At first, she thought it was a person that trod on her magnificent piece of artwork, but actually this figure cut her hair then diced it to tiny shreds.

Rapunzel wailed and sobbed for days. Until she got a letter from the governor of Woolly Winters.

Dear Miss Rapunzel,
Here is your monthly magazine of Woolly Winters.
Governor of Woolly Winters

Now Rapunzel has a knitted hair extension.
