Gold Coins and Boats
King George V School, Shum, Lok - 10
My voyage starts in Hong Kong, it’s going to be a tiring trip.
I need to look for gold coins, but where will I find them and how will I get there?
I will use my speed boat to look for gold coins around the islands of Hong Kong.
I get there and the gold coins are hidden in treasure boxes…wow this is an adventure!
My mission is to get as many gold coins as I can, and I will sleep with them in my bed to keep them safe.
I will invite people to my speedboat to help me find the coins…
Will they look after the treasure?
Or will they take my treasure?
I won’t share my coins, but they can keep the ones they find themselves.
I will bring my gold coins back to Sai Kung, Hoi Ha. And put them in my own treasure box.
Finally I can take a rest and enjoy my golden treasure.
My Treasure
Korean International School - Springboard, Chor, Damien - 11
I want to find gold.
I want to find jewels.
I need to dig a hole,
using my tools.
I want to find diamonds.
I want to find money.
I’d buy a computer,
and a long eared grey bunny.
I want to find emeralds.
I want to find cash.
I’d buy a swimming pool,
and make a big splash.
But I don’t need treasure,
To give me pleasure.
I need something other,
That is my mother.
