Hi, I am a Rookie Lifesaver
Rookie lifesaving is learning about, lifesaving, first aid, water safety, making friends and having fun. A typical Rookie lifesaving session starts in the classroom (don’t worry it is not a bit like school!). In the classroom we do posters about water safety, and we have fake blood (that you use at Halloween), dark coloured lipstick and skin colour to make our wounds realistic. We have two different types of manikins one which we do C.P.R it is called Anne and the other one is to help you practice if someone is choking he(that’s the one we have anyway) is called Choking Charlie. The second part of Rookie lifesaving is in the water. You learn to rescue with different tows (I don’t mean your actual toes!!), equipment and pieces of clothing e.g. your top.
We also play games. Sometimes you are entered into competitions with other rookie lifesaving clubs. Last year, my team, Bon accord won!!
There are four star grades (four levels). I am on star grade three. When you are over thirteen you go to bronze medallion which is part of the Duke of Edinburgh award.
Rookie is for 8-13 year olds. Bon accord, Hazlehead and Bridge of Don. See you in the classroom!!!!

It blooms in spring,
Joy is what it brings.
It ispink and white,
The wind shakes it like it’s on a rough flight.
“Please do not pick me,” it said
If you pick me I must be paid.
So do not pick this plant
What is it ?
It’s blossoms.

My cat isn’t fat,
he is not lazy,
he plays like crazy,
he lies on my bed,
and grabs the hair on my head,
his name is Rover,
and he gives me luck
like a four leaf clover!!

My Medieval Story by Natalia 12
Here I am sitting in my smoky, smelly soggy home. My mother is cooking something muddy in color and putrid in smell and I really don’t want to eat it. Even though it’s my birthday we just can’t afford to make something more appetizing or else we would starve for the rest of the week. Really the only exciting prospect of today is that the travelers are coming to our part of the city. The way of the travelers is shrouded in mystery, nobody knows where they come from or what they are called but what everybody does know is that they are some kind of fortune tellers. And if you come to them they will tell you exactly what will happen to you. Many people doubt them but they are always completely accurate in what they tell you. I really want to see them but my mother is forever telling me that they are witches and cannot be trusted. I sit in the damp hay leaning against the soft rotten wood of our house and think how I am going to escape….. I urge my weary mind to think of some solution to my problem but when I have just given up hope my mother comes bustling up to me saying, “Here is some money for you to buy something nice at the market”,she declared “I know it’s not much but it’s the best we can do”. I gratefully accept the money and boldly step out the front door. I sprint down the street along past the market and dodge flying buckets full of gunge and carefully step over horrible remains near the butcher. I am completely out of breath when the small rickety hut in which the travelers stay in is finally close. When I am inside the hut I notice a small patterned woman sitting on a stool.She notices me and fixes a cold hard glare at me. She strides towards me with a look of pure hatred on her face. She points her finger at me and I am paralyzed with fear. “You”, she growls “You are the daughter of the woman who had us evicted from here.She gathered a mob of villagers and threatened to kill us if we did not go. I have been expecting you and a devastating fate awaits you, the perfect way to get revenge.” I listen; terrified as she chants words in an exotic language in a menacing tone.She must be using some kind of witchcraft! She shrieks and turns towards me.I feel as if my heart has stopped beating and my blood turns cold and my face turns purple and then I collapse I don’t know how long it was before I wake up but the woman is standing over me and as soon as my eyes start to focus there’s a huge pressure on my lungs and I can’t breathe my world turns red and I can’t keep going and I lie dead blood seeping out my heart.The woman gives a hearty laugh and snarls “That will show them, DEAD and on her birthday too”.

Some of the youngest musicans in Aberdeen were making their debut on the big stage at the lemon Tree however there was some old greats like Reese Jones who was playing bass on 5 SONGS!!!!!. There was also many youngsters like Juuso Hivonen and his good friend Kieran Mcdonald and two very young girls playing Same Jeans. The stage was set as the show was started with a teenage drummer playing Plug In Baby by Muse of course a short while later Tom Fraser began Playing The Kids arent alright conseqeuntly his amazing guitar skills knocked everyone sensless the solo came and went after a long song Tom played the last chord and a roar came from the crowd.
It came so close to no.10 when Juuso Hirvonen the nervous 12 year old came to play teenage kicks by the undertones. He got inturduced by Dec Mcdonald his teacher and mentor and as Juuso heard his name he shot his arms in the air trying to get the crowd on his sidehowever it didnt work now nearly at the end the rookie thought he wasnt going to get a cheer but the as he played the chords for his solo the amazed crowd went nuts.
Kieran Mcdonald was up straiht after Juuso. The young Kieran was playing Highway to hell by AC/DC alongside his dad Dec mcdonald but saving till last it was the very young and talented David Mcbain playing purple haze everyone crowded round in excitement. The youngsters will be back in action in Sepetember
