2nd Class: Story Writing

Updated: Nov 8





We had fun writing stories for the Southern Star Writers' Competition this week. Everyone wrote a story called, "The West Cork Reindeer Who Saved Christmas." Here are a few examples of our stories.


The West Cork Reindeer Who Saved Christmas


There once was a young, friendly reindeer from Bandon called Candy-Cane. On Christmas Eve, disaster struck! Santa was ill and he couldn’t deliver any of the presents to the children around the world.


Candy-Cane suggested that she could deliver the presents for Santa Claus. Santa replied, ‘Okay Candy-Cane, you can try but I am going to send an elf with you called Mia’.


Their bright sleigh soared through the sky delivering the presents around the world, but when they reached West Cork Candy-cane realised they had forgotten one special present in Australia. It was half past eleven, so they had to be super quick!


At ten to twelve they were in China, so they were super close! At one minute to midnight, they made it to Australia and Santa was very proud of them. Candy-Cane and Mia saved Christmas!

The End.

The West Cork Reindeer Who Saved Christmas


In the green hills of West Cork, lived a young reindeer called Finn. He was different from other reindeers because his antlers glowed with a warm golden light. The children at Bandonbridge National School loved to watch Finn play by the river, his antlers shining like little stars.


One Christmas Eve, a huge snowstorm blew through the sky, covering the world in thick clouds. Santa couldn’t see past the clouds to the stars, and without them, he couldn’t find his way to deliver the presents. Santa's reindeers were worried and the children of Bandonbridge were dreaming about Christmas and presents.


Suddenly Santa spotted Finn's antlers shining and flew down through the cloud to West Cork. Finn ran ahead of Santa to show him the way. The next day, all the children were very happy that they all woke up to presents. Finn the hero, saved Christmas!

The End.

The West Cork Reindeer Who Saved Christmas

Last Christmas, there was a reindeer called Albert. He lived in West Cork. On Christmas Eve, when Albert was going to bed his phone rang. It was Santa Claus! Santa said to Albert, ‘You need to come to the North Pole; Dasher is sick and we need another reindeer’.


Albert quickly got out of bed and tiptoed down the stairs. He gulped a special potion that he got from Santa. Albert was so excited that the potion made him fly. On the way to the North Pole Albert noticed the big Christmas tree shining bright in Bandon.


When Albert got to the North Pole he met Santa. Santa was getting his sleigh ready for take-off. By midnight they were up high soaring through the sky. Firstly, they delivered presents to all the children and then they went to Albert's house. Finally, it was time for Santa and Albert to say goodbye.

Albert the West Cork Reindeer saved Christmas.

The End.
