Mash Up!

CORONAVIRUS

The Coronavirus is an infectious disease that is something that has never happened before. It is thought to have started in a market in Wuhan, China. It has now spread into pretty much every continent and the numbers of people getting it is going up every single hour of the day. People are now protecting themselves from it but it is very dangerous for older people or those who already have health problems. In the news it has been quite hectic because it is something that we have never experienced before. The symptoms are: if you are feeling short of breath (as if you just ran House Cross Country), if your temperature is getting higher and having a persistent cough which gets more croaky over time.

A Message from the Editor

Mrs Nicole Burroughs

This edition comes to you with apologies for its lateness! When one of our

reporters, Emma H, wrote the article below about a new illness called Corona-

virus, we had no idea how our Spring Term at The Manor would end! We

missed our final session of Manor Mash Up Club when the school had to close

and lockdown swiftly followed. Now I have finally had time to pull together

the fantastic articles, puzzles and quizzes produced by the awesome Manor

Mash Up team… thank you all for your efforts and I hope everyone enjoys

reading our ‘lockdown edition’. Have a HAPPY EASTER and stay safe.

Once there were two girls. One was called Marie. Marie loved going on adventures and singing. The other girl was called Jane. Jane loved to draw and design stuff. This story takes place on the 13th of July 2002, when the girls are both 17.

“Mum have you got my notepad and pen?” shouted Jane from her bedroom. “Oh silly me I almost forgot it!” said Jane’s Mother from the kitchen. Jane was packing her enormous purple suitcase to go on an adventure that her best friend, Marie, insisted on going on. Their adventure was: to find the Golden Flower; hidden deep inside a chamber in the middle of nowhere.

When they got to the place where they said to meet, Marie got there 20 minutes early because she only lived 12 minutes away. Jane on the other hand lived 26 minutes away. When Jane saw Marie she said “What have you got in there?!” pointing at her suitcase. Marie replied with... “ Well I’ve got a toothbrush, some toothpaste, a bottle of shower gel, pyjamas, a tent for us to sleep in on our journey… and so on!”

So when their bus arrived they hopped on the bus and their parents went to stay in a hotel in Boliv-ia (that’s where Jane and Marie were going) to wait for their kids to find the Golden Flower. On the bus Marie saw a person in a black hooded cloak looking at her and she saw that they had a knife in their pocket… but Marie didn't mind. Marie laughs in the face of danger!

When they arrived at the airport they went to the burger place and had a burger. Then they got on the plane. It was a very long journey but they got there alright. When they got there they had to first find the right rainforest. When they found it, they set off to find the Golden Flower. They set off through the trees and vines until nightfall. “ We have to find a place to sleep tonight, Marie…” said Jane nervously. “ Ha!, you’re kidding right!” said Marie with a laughing tone in her voice. “N-No?” whispered Jane. “It's fine if you’re scared Jane. We can go back if you want” said Marie. “No I don't want to go back, I mean you’re never too late for an adventure, right?!” Said Jane.

So they carried on walking until they got too tired to walk anymore. They found a hollow tree trunk and put their sleeping bags underneath. They snuggled in and fell into a deep, deep sleep…

When Jane woke up, at first she screamed a very high pitched scream which sent rock birds flying and parrots squawking their heads off. Marie woke up with a start and said “WHAT ON EARTH WAS THAT FOR?”. Jane just shrugged and apologised.

After that they carried on walking… until they found a temple... the Temple. And right there, glow-ing as brightly as the sun was the Golden Flower…

We are very sad to say goodbye to the amazing Mrs Belcher, who is the Head of Drama. She is very sadly leaving. She has done so much over the years making amazing plays to perform and enjoy. Thank you for teaching at The Manor, Mrs Belcher, you are the best - we will not forget you.

We asked some children what they think about Mrs Belcher leaving, and this is what they said: How do you feel about Mrs Belcher leaving? Sad! Gloomy! No one can replace her! Unhappy! Tearful! What are your favourite memories of Mrs Belcher? Mine was acting in plays! Drama lessons! Library; seeing her all cosy! When we found out what we were in plays! What was your favourite play you’ve seen/acted in? Little Red Riding Hood in Year 4. The Good, The Bad and the Muddly by the old Year 6’s. And the Year 2 Tiger play! Mrs Haines is also leaving - we will miss you too, Mrs Haines! It’s such a shock to say goodbye. We have enjoyed having such a wonderful pianist in our school. We hope you will have such a fun time, both of you. How can we repay you for your time here? It’s sad to see two such wonderful teachers go. Goodbye, and good luck to you both!
