What a day!! I was late for school and we had a trip to the

zoo (I forgot!). They had to wait for me and Mrs Tarrant

was angry. She gave me extra homework—she used to be

my favourite teacher! The zoo was fun. We fed the

monkeys and a cute baby monkey stole Joe’s hat! Ha! Ha!

Ha! It was awesome! But then we went to the snake house.

Yuck! I HATE snakes! Later I was watching TV when Mum

shouted, ‘GEMMA, HOMEWORK!’. Arrrgh, we didn’t use to

get so much homework. Tomorrow I can stay in bed

because it’s SATURDAY!

Yesterday was awesome. We went on a school trip to Malacca Zoo

with my classmates and class teacher, Mr Bard (My favourite

teacher!). We went there by bus. It was very tiring! After arriving

at the zoo, Mr Bard bought tickets for us.
