This
month the children from Year Five and Six have been writing mystery stories.
Their task was to write about themselves as a main character and describe an
event which happened at school.
As
there were so many fantastic pieces of writing, I am leaving the page space
free for them. More news from me next month, but for this month sit back, grab
a cuppa and enjoy their stories!!
The next day in the evening, Max made his move. He dashed
to the main gate and firmly placed his hand on the lock and then vaulted
over. This was the only time to do
it. It was another risk Max was willing
to take. “Just do it,” he muttered to
himself as he crept up to the school. He
had seen a smashed window from the day before.

When the police arrived they closed the room off to
examine the area. Once they had finished
she heard them say, “The murderer was Miss Blueberry but don’t worry we are
going to look into this further.” Chloe
thought this can’t be her as she is kind and caring. Miss Blueberry would never do something like
that. She thought and thought until she
decided to tell the police. Finally she
had built up the courage to tell the highly decorated men (the police)
eek! So Chloe explained, “Oh it can’t
have been her because she’s too kind and hates no one.” “I’m sorry there is no one else who could
have done it and all the clues lead to Miss Blueberry.” He sighed.
Then Chloe sat down and sighed in disbelief. She thought there must be some way to prove
that it wasn’t Miss Blueberry….

You know when people say, “It had a carpet of flies” this
was it. Hundreds of thousands of them
coating the floor. The dark room had no
windows but slits in the roof. In the
corner sleeping inside a glass case was, Lyra.
Centred in the middle was a BIG, RED BUTTON. I bounded towards it. Could it free Lyra? I raised my hand. 30cm away Lyra woke up. 20cm away she saw me. 10cm away she started frantically waving at
me. 5cm away my spidery senses are
starting to tingle. 1cm away I
stopped. All my insides were screaming
at me to do it. I thought for a second.
”Get out of the way!” I instructed Lyra.
I hurtled myself towards the glass case.
BANG! SMASH! Was all I heard before I tumbled to the ground.

Beau came into school early and gave his homework
in. As he came in, he noticed that the
school trophies have disappeared. He
went to tell the teachers but he couldn’t find them anywhere so Beau was. Frank found some footsteps that were small
and faint and looked like Beau’s.

Krysta’s class was a small classroom. The big, white board had drawings from when
silly kids had been drawing on it at detention.
The lights flickered because they hadn’t been changed for years. Her teacher’s name was Miss Cherry. She was the worst teacher in the whole,
entire school. She had long, blond hair
with loads of knots in it. She was wearing
a short skirt with cats on and a sweater that said, “Go to college!”

Whilst eating his muffin, police man Blueberry
questioned, “Miss Williams, what did you do last night?” Miss Williams said, “Mrs Comer and I were
having an argument”. “Ok Miss Williams,
you will have to go to the police station.”
I heard the police car go down the road.

After four days of going in and out of boring tunnels she
had finally got to the 5th and final tunnel and she wasn’t
alone! She looked behind her and there
she saw a dark shadowy figure it was coming closer and there was nothing Meadow
could do. It had a flashlight! She saw the face but she couldn’t quite work
out who it was. “Oh!” Meadow sighed in
relief. It was Molly and she was so
glad!

The next morning Cally put on her best clothing Cally
suddenly got butterflies in her tummy she was very nervous. As Cally went into
school she saw the new girl. Even when Cally was in her best cloths Erin was
prettier than her. Then the new girl came over to Cally and said her name was
Erin. Cally was so angry she gave Erin the silent treatment.

Somehow my size six feet tip toed across the library
carpet without a creek or crack. It took a while to find the book from section
M, however once I did the book shelves opened. Suddenly footsteps tapped down
the stairs. I ran so fast it was as if I qualified for the Olympics.
By Corey
When they got to the library, Meadow was desperate for a
drink so she rushed up stairs to go and get one. Whilst Meadow was upstairs
Grace saw a book hanging out from the book shelf and pushed it in… Then Meadow
heard a scream and rushed down stairs like a heard of elephants.

At 2:30pm the house cups were handed out at Great
Gaddesden School for the best house leader. Harry was jealous because in his
opinion, his team were better, but they didn’t win. Later that day, Harry
bumped into the person who won, Grace, Harry’s arch enemy. Harry decided to
speak up, “I should of won!” Seeing the trophy in her hand, Harry reached for
the trophy. Grace quickly hit Harry on the temple and he was dead in seconds.
She ran through the door to the library and out of the window.

I was walking down the ominous corridor towards the
library when precipitately CRASH! AAAGH! I dropped my books and rapidly sped
off down the hall. Inside Mr Bennett, the librarian, lying in a pool of
rubicund blood, Kate was there too endeavouring to keep him with us. It turned
out the book case had fallen on him and crushed his rib cage, Kate and I were
trying to lift it off of him, our hands caked in blood. One of Bennett’s bones
had pierced through his blood stained skin, and now was resting on his stomach
like a raw, gory steak on a plate. We eventually accomplished the mission of
lifting the book case off of him, and he choked “my… cough… my twin… still
l…l…lives, cough”. And then this town’s population went down by one.
