Let ’ s play with grammar and … make rules !
We should all pay attention to the amount of water we waste on a daily basis because it ’ s the most important good for sustaining life on planet Earth .
Here are some rules we should all bear in mind and try to follow :
• You should always recycle plastic bottles
• Don ’ t take a time-consuming and … waterconsuming bath , choose a shower instead
• You ’ d better install flow restrictors in your shower
• Turn the tap off while brushing your teeth
• It is recommended that everyone check for leaks in pipes , hoses and faucets
• While doing the washing up , don ’ t leave the water run in order to rinse
• If you are to use the washing machine , make sure it is fully loaded
• Water the lawn in moderation and prefer to buy plants that do not need intensive watering or are drought tolerant
• Last but not least … use a small water deposit in your bathroom so that you can reduce the amount of water used in each flush .

“ Water ”
Water , water you keep us alive thanks to you we survive we find you in oceans , rivers and waterfalls in ponds , rain and even snowfalls
Every day I take a shower after the gym you are what I devour I use you to wash my hands and later in the day water the plants
Then I go and take a nap Oh no ! I forgot to close the tap we all must not waste you we should try to save you
Water
It is the river it becomes rain It helps people grow their grain It is life in oceans and seas It is life to people , animals and trees It transforms into snow and ice , It even helps you cook rice !

For some people it is rare , but some others do not care Do not waste it , Don ’ t pollute it , Do not take water for granted , but instead you ’ d better save it for our grandchildren to have it
Crying memories
MYRTO LEONARDOU 8A
Why do you cry , little child ? Between waves , your tears are the only memories you ’ ve brought here , the only whispers which still say your homeland ’ s name , poor moment
