    The Giraffes have read to the end of their class text 'Oliver and the Seawigs.'  In the book, Oliver Crisp and Iris (a mermaid), are bullied by Stacey de Lacey, who is determined that Thurlstone will win the Night of the Seawigs.  At the end of the story, Stacey floats away on a raft, having been defeated, with the sea monkeys clinging onto him.  We have written apology notes from Stacey, asking for forgiveness from Oliver and Iris.  We learnt to use a 'the more, the more' sentence and include this in our writing.
