Carrying the Olympic Torch 2012 in Wrangle

Well along the A52 anyway.

On June 27th the Olympic Torch will pass Wrangle School Gates on its way to the Olympic Games in London.
Today Wrangle School Children had a taste of fame as they were interviewed by Scott Dalton from BBC Radio Lincolnshire and broadcast LIVE at 10.20 am today.

Wrangle Reporters turned the tables on Mr Dalton as they interviewed him (for a change!). Read all about it on Wrangle Reporters blog as they post their reports on Wednesday 9th of November.

It's almost as exciting as Guy Fawkes night!

Editor's note:

Melanie Marshall, our very own olympic champion, learned to swim in Wrangle School Pool.
How's that for a bit of local history - perhaps we should have a plaque on one of the doors to our new dressing rooms. Would you come and unveil it Mel?

Writing Rocks

It certainly does. We have over 250 entries for our competition. Some were very exciting reading!
We are in the process of judging ready to send off to Editor Tim Atkinson for him to choose the final winners.
 Will you be in our book??

Tag-Rugby Tournament by Zak and Arron

The Tag-Rugby Tournament took place at the Princess Royal sports Arena in Boston.
As we arrived we saw there were lots of schools there, we started with a quick warm up, after that we were given our fixtures sheet.
We were told to go to the pitch and we played Wyberton Primary School we ended up with a 1-1 draw.   Our next match was against Hawthorn Tree Primary School sadly we lost 3-0 as we were upset we also lost the next game against Sibsey it wasnt getting any better we also lost against New York Primary
school.
We luckily got to the semi final, we were ready to get to the final and we did we won the match 3-2 but one of our players went to try and grab the tag and ended up getting his trouser leg and his trousers ripped.  We played Wyberton again, all of us were so excited that we won the match and the Silver Plate.
When we got back to school and walked into the classroom we acted so miserable. All of a sudden we screamed "WE WON!" Zak Rivers and Luke Sanger gave Mrs Jackson a huge hug.

History in the Making

Our Trip to Boston to take part in the Boston Quilt Project at Giles School Gallery.

Report by Arron and Helena.

   It was Wednesday 5^th October and Bethan, Zak, Arron Georgia Helena and Sophie were going to Boston in Mrs Lister’s car with Mrs Ellwood.   It was really cool in Mrs Lister’s car because she had an awesome sunroof.  All the wind was smashing in our faces.   When we got there we parked in Sports Direct car park.  The town was packed because it was market day.   As we stepped in the Giles Art Gallery Lesley introduced herself to us all.   Lesley was very nice to everyone and she showed us a part of a patch work quilt. We made butterflies in squares to be joined up with the big quilt.  We made our way back to the car.   We all nearly trapped our fingers in the door as Georgia shut the door. 

We made our way back to school after an exciting day in Boston.

(Anyone is wlecome to call in at Giles Gallery and design a square to be included in the Boston Quilt Project - you don't have to be able to sew, all materials are provided free, and your  square  will be part of a special historical project. - Editor's note)

Back to Work!

After a short visit to hospital the Editor's computer went through a short convalescence and now seems to be working as it should.


A poem by Helena, Zak, Arron – Wrangle Reporters

Mountains are High

Valleys are Low

People Sigh

People Cry, when they say goodbye…

We'll Meet Again World War Two Mobile Museum On Calender TV

Report by Georgia


Paul and Lynda run a mobile musem.   When Scarlet Class (at Wrangle School) was doing a topic on WW2 Paul and Lynda came and they had guns, dummies, army helmets and ration books.In their exhibition they also had earphones, gas masks, and rattles - to make a noise if you were trapped under rubble.   As well as all that they have a big army truck.   Just before the summer holidays they fitted seat belts so Scarlet class could ride in the truck and go to Freiston Shore.   We waved to all the other people walking and driving along.   When we arrived Calender news programme was filming.   They filmed us it was so cool.
