Nature's Melody
By Danya (Year 10, Bossley Park High School)The wind calls and travels through my ears

The Flame

The sun shone brighter and lasted longer across the vast expanse of sand.

The Rain's Voice
By Saana (Year 8, Marist Regional College)Pitter patter, patter pitter, the rain falls,

Creating a cascading W -

Great Big Waterfall

I will put on my best show, screaming and showing my anger. -
The Wind

My Nature Story
By Isabella (Year 5, Morphett Vale East School)As the wind rushes through Ginny’s hair,
as her little finger feels the bark’s rough surface, she slides down,
her toes reaching the soft soil.
As the sun sets, she runs until she reaches the lake. -
The Odd Forest
By Jonathan (Year 5, Highgate Primary School)If I was a tree in a tribe of trees,

Let me breathe

There are more stars than there are grains of sand. -
Beautiful Baby Green Sea Turtle
By Eve (Year 4, St Brigid's Catholic Primary School)A baby green sea turtle crawling through the sand to get to the deep, mysterious ocean.

The Garden

Beyond

Banging doors
The rush of a downpour
