A letter to the year three class at CCC.

Dear everyone

I have been to London that has been my favourite place.
Also I have been reading about Queen Victoria, and they had penny hangs then, you sleep on it. And they made children work too. And also women, they carried coal, it was often so heavy that it took two men to lift it onto their heads.

I have a little piano now. I also have a blog that has all my adventures.

Happy Christmas to everyone, and goodbye Miss Adams and congratulations.

Thankyou for the letters I loved reading everyones.

Good bye

Love Johanna

-----------

Penny hang - During Victorian times homeless people on the street could hire a penny hang which was a space on a thick rope. There was no room to lie down so you hung across it.

Johanna was reading about children working in the coal mines and the terrible conditions.

Mont Saint Michel

Letter to Miss Adams and Miss Roche

Dear Miss Adams and Miss Roche

We are in France.
Did you know in St Malo they buy chickens with their heads still on.
And you will never guess what I saw? Hail. it is like hard snow.
Also I saw a lovely Island called Mont Saint Michel with a rainbow and birds coming out of it.
I have also seen a strange looking bird it was black and very fat.
I hope you are ok?
And I cannot believe it is nearly Christmas
Say hi to everyone for me
There are sheep, cows, squirrels, birds and deer here, but we have not seen any deer.

Love Johanna

The first time I saw frost.

My poem to Timo and Max

I have felt the rain that falls on you and I
When I think of you it makes me cry.
But then I think of you and me
and I can see
a rainbow.

The blankets on the chairs are to put over your knees to keep you warm while you have a drink.
