Hi everybody!

Thank you Mikhaila for answering my riddle. By the way, she was right! You would overtake second place and not first place so that is why you would be in second place. Anyway, time for my next riddle. Please have a guess even if you do not know it.

 There is a common english word that is nine letters long. Each time you remove a letter from it, it still remains an english word - from nine letters down to a single letter. What is the original word, and what and what are the words that it becomes after removing one letter at a time?

Hope it’s not too hard or not too easy.

Hi everybody!!!!!

For the past couple of weeks or so, we have been researching natural disasters. We all had to choose a type of natural disaster. I chose cyclones, and within that natural disaster you had to choose a specific question. My question - as you can see - is “How cyclones are formed?”.

Below are some interesting facts that I have found out from the internet:

1. Cyclones are formed form simple thunderstorms, however, the thunderstorms can only grow to cyclone strength with cooperation from the ocean AND the atmosphere.
2. The ocean water itself must be warmer than 26.5°C. The heat and moisture from this warm water is ultimately the source of energy for cyclones.
3. Cyclones will weaken rapidly when they travel over land or colder ocean waters - locations where the heat and moisture sources are rare or do not exist.

That’s all  have for now, but I hope to write more about cyclones later on!  I hope you liked it!

Hellooooooo everybody!

I got this idea from Nadine,(please, please don’t kill me Nadine). Also, like Nadine, I will just put them up in an end of year congratulating post! OK, please don’t hurt me Nadine, please please please please? This is my first one below:

If you were running a race and you passed the person in second place, what place would you be in now?

I will not write a new riddle until someone gets the right answer or the month has ended or if it is the end of the month I will choose (sorry).

Original idea from Nadine.

Hello everybody!

From April the 1st ’til April the 4th is the the Belmore South’s annual book fair!!!!!!

Why is it annual?

What happens there?

What do they have?

These are the questions you may ask.

No. 1: Every year our school has a book fair. Nearly always it is in April.

No. 2: All the previous years, teachers have sold books, notebooks, sharpeners, etc. But this year our prefects do tthis job!

No. 3: As I have noted above, the book fair has books (obviously), address books, notebooks, sharpeners, pens, pencils and so on.

All the money from this annual project goes either to the S.R.C (Student Representative Council) or the school. The book money goes to the school and all the other things (address books, notebooks, sharpeners, pens, pencils and etc.) we sell go to the S.R.C.
