Little Robin
by Theadora from Portobello High School

(1) Come

(1) Now

(2) Bright Eyed

(3) Little beast,

(5) Bring us our winter

(8) Bring the long-waited snow and cold,

red fruits ‘till spring

(21) And your wonderful song will share
share many stories needing told. So
come, little robin.

Hiding from winter, hoping for daisies
by Cynthia from St Mary’s Music School

(1) Five,

(1) Six,

(2) Seven,

(3) Eight, nine, ten.

(5) I’ll count the daisies

(8) Before summer turns to autumn

(13) Before the sky turns into a dusty
shade of grey
(21) Before the lakes form an icy shield,
guarding the depth of the lake from
all its secrets.
(34) Before daylights duration increasingly
starts to grow dimmer, while the cold,
snowy and eerie nights are feeling
unearthly and endless.
(55) Soon we will meet winter’s chilly
embrace. I will watch the icicles form
under the rising sun, and the birds fly
back and forth as the sun sets. Yet I
still sit here and wish for the daisies
to appear once again. There is hope.

The Magic of Maths
by Donald from Stirling

(1) Life

(1) Is

(2) Superb

(3) When Maths is

(5) Part of the Magic!

(8) The Wonders of the universe

(13) Can start to be explored and
understood with numbers

(21) Astronomy, Time, Nature, the whole
world around us, everything! comes
to life with Maths
(34) Unknown Planets orbiting distant
suns, movements in our own solar
system, the moon, the tides, the
rhythm of our own lives. All down
to Maths.
(55) Our Mountains, Lochs, Valleys, Seas,
created by ice-age forces, seemingly
at ease. Maths explains events from
our past, bringing logic and sense as
we explore the facts. Dive into
numbers, make it all fun - Maths is
your number one!
(89) Wing span of an eagle, speed of a
hare. A ptarmigans plumage on the
mountains, the temperature up there.
The patterns of nature, plants and
leaves, the lifespan, the carbon
capture of trees. The height of Ben
Nevis, the depth of Loch Ness, the
two hundred and eighty-two munros,
the thirty-thousand lochs, more or
less! Let the Magic of Maths and
Nature light up your life!
