I have been asked to write my first newspaper article!
It’s going to be in ‘First News‘ which is a newspaper for children. I had to write 250-300 words on recycling because we do it all the time at home.
About 760,000 children aged between 7 and 14 read the paper and the one with my article in it comes out on Friday. I hope you buy it so you can see what I have written!
I was also asked to write something for someone else’s blog. I wrote about trees for Reduce Footprints because I love them and I had 19 comments from people who liked my writing!

Well done !!!
I have read your newspaper article and am very proud to see my granddaughter in print. You managed to tell the readers a lot about recycling in so few words. The picture of you and dear old Sweep is lovely too. Very well done!
I think the writing on trees for Reduce Footprints is really fabulous. I love trees too.
