Room 13 Poem - Gemma Clydesdale

Room 13, a clever bunch, always talked, not just at lunch.
From the first day of school, we all made friends, new ones, old ones, we all meet again.
In our class you know who, find out about what we all do!
Abbey is quiet right now but watch out!!! She’s a cow lover as well
Georgiah loves to rock a lot, Ella, Brianna and Georgia love to shop!
Lucy loves to ride her horses, Gemma sings and gets applauses!
Christine and Jocelyn do gymnastics, people think they are fantastic
Hannah likes to swim real fast, Rachel plays softball, Zoe loves art!
Jackson and Kaiden are great at athletics, Samuel plays water polo and Janes loves mathletics,
Ethan loves cheese, Couper loves cricket, George has a smile, and no-one can stop it.
Beau plays netball not so great, Matt and Mike play Hockey, and Michael drums away
Austin and Flynn sit beside each other; Shaun loves play station more than his mother.
Then there is Alex who loves boxing, plays with his touch ball without even noticing.
Ben, Bruno and Caleb are the last few, Ben whispers loud Caleb and Bruno talk few.
So that is it for our poem, Room 13 2010, hope you like it so much you read it again!
