Once upon a time there lived three little black sheep.
They had built a house so that they could live in it together. There was a river on their property and there was a bridge over the river.
The first morning when they woke up all the grass had died on one side of the river so they crossed the bridge, when the first little black sheep was half way over the river they heard a rumble.
From under the bridge a voice called
“It is me! the mighty big troll.”
So the three little black sheep went
back inside and were very hungry.
The next morning they went to the bridge very, very early, to buy some some bacon and egg’s while the Troll was still asleep.
They tiptoed through the ditch hoping troll wouldn’t hear them.
But from under the bridge a voice called
“It is me! the mighty big troll.” And if you come over my bridge I will eat you up So the three little black sheep went home and were very very hungry
and then built a house and lived happily ever after.The end.

Boy-racers should be banned!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Good morning everyone I’m here to talk to you about Boy-racers and why we should ban them for their unhappy lives.
They should be banned because they make a mess from crashes and the broken glass. It could pop our tires also the smell of burning rubber. There are skid marks left on our roads it’s terrible.
I believe this because our roads aren’t safe anymore .there has been glass left behind and it can cut our feet if we have no shoes .also we have them on our roads when we probably don’t know. My other reason is that where not getting any sleep at night because you can hear them racing you can also hear them breaking glass and in the morning we might cut ourselves if where NOT careful. I also believe this because our loved ones are dying in these horrible things and our money is spent on funerals and tangis when it could be for going on holiday. Boy racers think it’s cool to race around like mad idiots. But they’re wrong because it’s ruining our community and their polluting the air. So are you convinced because im certainly convinced By
