Vera's Dad brought a Rubbish Truck to School

Vera's dad (Tim) brought a brand new rubbish truck to school.  He showed us how they scoop up the big bins. 

We learnt that the trucks use hydraulic  fluid to lift the arm, the fluid is purple.  (Oscar)

Girls can drive the trucks, they are often better drivers.  (Amelie)

The rubbish produces methane gas, that gas is used to power houses. (Regan)

The methane can create an explosion, people have to be well trained. (Ashton)

Rosie's If I was In Charge of the World Poem

If I were in Charge of the World

If I were in charge of the world,

I’d cancel stinky cows that always

have a bad smell when you

go close to them.

I will even cancel

the little baby ones.

If I were in charge of the world,

There would be floating people

so they don’t have to pollute

with cars and there will even

be floating robbers so we can see

them steal our stuff.

If I were in charge of the world,

You wouldn’t have any landfill

so the earth wouldn’t even have

a single bit of glad wrap.

If I were in charge of the world,

A computer would be for free

and a person who always plays

the same game and sometimes

takes selfies, would still be

allowed to be in charge of the world.

Liam's In Charge of the World Poem

If I was in Charge of the World

I’d cancel going to bed,

I’d cancel being president,

I’d even cancel going to school,

If I was in charge of the world

There would be no homework,

There would be no vegetables,

There would even be raining lollipops from the sky,

If I was in charge of the world

You wouldn’t have to pay for anything in the world,

You wouldn’t have to eat healthy food,

You wouldn’t have to listen to anyone who tells you what to do,

Or,  don’t be mean to your brother or sister,

You wouldn’t even have go in a plane to go all the way to a different country you could just go on a car,

If I was in charge of the world,

Lollies and candy would be vegetables and vegetables would be candy and lollies,

And a person that was mean gets fired and sometimes

loses their job would still be allowed to be in charge of the world.
