The first year children are going to perform "The Gruffalo" story.
A mouse went for a walk through the forest.
The fox saw the mouse and thought:
Ooh! What a good snack I have for today.
Where are you going to, little and hairy mouse?
If you agree come to my house
and we will have lunch together.
Thank you, fox! I've arranged to meet the Gruffalo.
A Gruffalo? What does a Gruffalo look like?
The Gruffalo has terrible tusks,
terrible claws as knife points
and terrible and yellow teeth.
By the way, the Gruffalo loves roasted fox.
Roasted fox?
I'm off, I'm of! I'm in a hurry!
The mouse continued walking through the forest.
It appeared an owl,
that thought when it saw the mouse:
What a good snack I am going to have!
Where are you going to, little and hairy mouse?
If you agree come to my house
and we will have tea together.
Thank you, owl! I've arranged to meet the Gruffalo.
A Gruffalo? What is a Gruffalo?
The Gruffalo has lumps in his knees
and a poisonous wart at the end of his nose.
His eyes are bigger than two oranges.
By the way, the Gruffalo loves owl ice cream.
Owl ice cream?
I'm off, I'm off! I'm in a hurry!
The mouse continued walking through the forest.
And he met a snake.
The snake, when saw the mouse, thought:
Ooh! What a wonderful dinner I am going to have today!
Where are you going to, little and hairy mouse?
If you agree, come to my house and we will have dinner together.
Thank you, snake! I've arranged to meet the Gruffalo.
A Gruffalo? How is a Gruffalo?
The Gruffalo has a long and black tongue,
and his back is covered with purple prickles.
By the way, the Gruffalo loves snake omelette.
Snake omelette?
I'm off, I'm off! I'm in a hurry!
The mouse continued walking through the forest.
Then, he met the Gruffalo.
Who is this monstrous creature?
with those eyes as big as two oranges,
with that poisonous wart at the end of his nose,
with those horrible tusks,
those terrible and yellow teeth,
that long and black tongue,
his is covered with purple prickles,
those terrible claws as knife points,
and it has lumps in its knees...
HELP!!!! IT IS A GRUFFALO!!!
Yummy! My favourite food!
What lucky I am!
You are going to taste delicious with a crunchy slice of bread!
In the forest, all the animals have a great deal of respect for me.
Follow me and you will see I am not lying to you.
The Gruffalo and the mouse continued walking through the forest,
until they met:
the fox,
the owl
and the snake who were walking.
When they saw the mouse and the Gruffalo,
they scared and ran off the forest.
I am starting to feel hungry
and I love Gruffalo pie.
Gruffalo pie?
I'm off, I'm off! I'm in a hurry!
The mouse continued walking through the forest
until he found a nice nut and enjoyed it.
Snip, snap, snout,
this Gruffalo story is told out.
