How Boring! 5 Lily Brocklehurst-Cordell from 2F won the Pre-Prep elocution competition on Monday 10th March reading a poem called ‘Today is Very Boring’ – by Jack Prelutsky. It was lovely to see Mrs Sarah Miles back at Hallfield judging the entries. As a former teacher here, Mrs Miles will know that ‘boring’ is not a word that could be used to describe a day at Hallfield – but read the poem and you will see that boring it was not! Well done Lily!


Today is very boring, It’s a very boring day, There is nothing much to look at, There is nothing much to say, There’s a peacock on my sneakers, There’s a penguin on my head, There’s a dormouse on my doorstep, I am going back to bed.


Today is very boring, It is boring through and through, There is absolutely nothing That I think I want to do, I see giants riding rhinos, And an ogre with a sword, There’s a dragon blowing smoke rings, I am positively bored.


Today is very boring, I can hardly help but yawn, There’s a flying saucer landing In the middle of the lawn, A volcano just erupted Less than half a mile away, I think I felt an earthquake, It’s a very boring day.


Treading the Boards


Trouble in the Woods! 53 Reporters were dispatched to the local woods following reports of a break in at the Bears’ house.


It was clear that a local vandal had been at work when bowls and chairs were discovered broken on the floor, but no-one was more surprised than the Bear Family when it was revealed that the perpetrator was none other than the horrid Goldilocks. Year 1 reported the incident with great enthusiasm and pace.
