Excitement at the fair


On Sunday St Mary's had their annual school fair. It is the last one before
the school moves across the road. Most of the time I was leading my pony
Spirit around at the pony stall. Mum was organizing the White Elephant and Dad
was doing the barbecue for the burgers. Every hour I gave Spirit a 15 minute
break. I only got to go on the Tombola because most of the time I was leading
Spirit around. There were lots people and by lunch time there were people
everywhere.  I saw some old friends that were in my class last year like:
Jade, Stacy and Cecilia. There are heaps of stalls and some new ones too,
like: Soak a Senior, Tombola, St Johns, White Elephant, Food Stalls, Pony
rides and much more. It was Spirit's first time at the fair and he got very
weary looking at the juicy green grass and walking around in circles all day.
I think the fair was fun but we need to try some new stalls, instead of the
same ones every year.

  2. Hi Michaela
    It was good that you could work at the fair,
    Just wondering have you worked at the fair before or is this your first time?
    Great story, I liked how you called it the Annual fair.

  4. Hi Michaela,
    I love your fair story. Did you mind leading your pony around instead of enjoying the fair?
    Your pony looks so cute.

    1. Thanks for the comment Laura,
      I didn't really mind leading Spirit around for most of the time, I kept myself busy starting a conversation with the children, if they were old enough to speak!

    1. Hi Mia, Yes I enjoyed walking Spirit around.
      He was very well behaved, for his first time at the fair.
      Your brother had a few rides, he really enjoyed it.

  7. Hi Michaela. I really like your story. I agree with you we definitely need some new stalls. The soak a senior was a good idea so hopefully there will be loads of different stalls next year.

    1. Hi Aaliyah,
      It was fun leading them around, just to make it a bit more exciting I lead them under the tree, and when I counted to three they had to duck down so they wouldn't hit the tree branch.

      I did have fun, maybe the school should design some new stalls that are simple to arrange but fun.

  13. Hello Missy,

    I have been reading all the comments about Spirit and you at the fair.
    You did a really great job, especially as you missed most of the fair.
    Well done.

    Love Christine
