FAIRHOLME PREPARATORY SCHOOL

An Introduction by Philip Reeve

I have been writing stories ever since I learnt how to write but I never imagined I would see my stories in print until I finished Mortal Engines, which was about my first really big idea – moving cities! Well done for having your own piece of writing in print already in this We Are Writers book. Stories and poems can be anything you would like them to be – they can be long or short, funny or scary, and about very, very big or very, very small things. The most important thing is to keep looking for ideas. Inspiration can be found anywhere so keep on looking, and make notes of your ideas so they can be used later. Always be yourself when you write though. A story or poem belongs to you, and the very best ones tend to spring out of your own personality. And don’t forget to keep looking out for ideas for your next masterpiece…

The Queen’s , 2012, has been a unique event which we hope will be remembered by the children of Fairholme in years to come. This collection of individual poems, written by our pupils, provides a personal and special record of this historic occasion. It reflects some of the sentiments expressed by the children of the Queen’s contribution to our country during her sixty year reign and the excitement of the Jubilee celebrations taking place. The collection comprises a number of different styles of poetry, including freeform, haiku, kenning and acrostic, selected to suit the ages of the children and to represent the variety of learning in literacy at Fairholme. Our aim was to involve as many children as possible and so Forms III to VII have provided poems, Forms I and II have written some ideas and thoughts about the Queen and the older members of Kindergarten have contributed drawings of the Queen for the book cover. My thanks go to all the children for their efforts and to the staff for their encouragement and guidance.

The Queen with a mighty sixty year reign, She is still as right as rain, With her family so loving, they keep coming and coming, She has a crystal crown, she has never frowned. Don’t you agree, with me? She has been on the throne since 1953. I hope she stays for a very long time, She is still not as bitter as lime. The Epsom Derby will be quite a party, The Queen herself will attend, She will watch till the end, The nation so proud, why are they so loud? Don’t you agree, with me? She has been on the throne since 1953, With horses at a mighty pace, That will be a fantastic race.

89 Jubilee Poem James Webster Form IVT

Upon her head a crown she wears, She has four children that she loves to bits, Now she sits in Buckingham Palace, With her pet corgis, two she has, In the sky her flag waves.

90 The Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Toby Wejbora Form IVL

In London the Queen lives in Buckingham Palace, On the throne the Queen has been for sixty years, Inside the Palace the corgi dogs sleep, In the army the Queen is the head, Outside the Palace Prince Charles rides on a horse, On top of Windsor Castle the flag waves.

A time to rejoice And give thanks for her long reign And service to us

92 For You Enya Williams Form VI

For you a special lunch is held, In honour of your Diamond Day. The people shout, “Make way, make way!” For the party is going to start, Everyone plays an important part, For all the celebrations for you Your Majesty the Queen, The everlasting Queen of England.

For you the flotilla boats Float away in lovely coats. Please attend your Majesty, When she comes she’ll arrive in Great style, with a shining crown, And a wonderful glittering gown. Your Majesty the Queen, The everlasting Queen of England

For you the beacons are lit, The fire is as red as blood. Went up and up in flames,

93 If you watch, you will find out. Whatever happens, don’t wear a pout! Everyone is happy for you, Your Majesty The Queen of England.

For you a Diamond Choir sings. The Chapter of St. Pauls writes a prayer. After a carriage, In shining gold, very posh, Will offer you tea and toast. When you reach an RAF plane Will fly by and do tricks. The Queen loves us very dearly.
