Varsity College hold their own Greatest Blogger competition

I recently got an email from a teacher at Var­sity Col­lege on the Gold Coast who had been read­ing The Great­est Blog­ger in the World with her Grade 5 class. Appar­ently they liked the book so much they decided to run their own in-class Great­est Blog­ger com­pe­ti­tion. They used the specs from the offi­cial com­pe­ti­tion that ran back in July, to com­pose a short story with words and terms from the book such as ‘Bar­code’, ‘Lola Cat’ and ‘Trunk Food Company’.

The Var­sity Col­lege Great­est Blog­ger com­pe­ti­tion has been and gone and I can now exclu­sively reveal that the win­ner of the com­peition was Olivia. Good on you Olivia. You are the Great­est Blog­ger (at Var­sity Col­lege, if not the world). And here is Olivia’s win­ning com­po­si­tion for your read­ing pleasure.

My granny is soooo annoy­ing that we built her granny flat out of straw in the hope that one day, the big bad wolf would come and blow it down and eat her! But instead when she opened the door she saw Lola Cat with the Boots — Puss-in-Boots, along with his famous out­back, iron­man of an ani­mal BARCODE — or stage name — DUCK ON A LEASH!! I won’t tell you the rest, things might get feathery!

Before Mum’s wed­ding, I got my hair cut so short that on the day I wore a tuxedo instead of a dress. They were sell­ing ille­gal red cor­dial at the time of the after party, so I took my chances and had a sip. It tasted bet­ter know­ing where I’d end up, because nobody would see me like this in jail. I guess it was the Trunk Food Com­pany behind it.

The biggest ani­mal on our farm is the unshorn merino. At our school par-tay they wanted it there instead of the school mas­cot. A kid called Dr Mary­loaf started to ride it. It’s now in hospital…sad really! It must have been groomed by my mum after her FAP meet­ing. Mum makes every­thing look like card­board…includ­ing me! Maybe he thought the merino was one of those card­board mod­els that you just jump on and ride?
