Weekly Competition #5
12 October 2018
WINNERS ANNOUNCED:
cultured_atom and neat_kiwifruit
Well done to all of the creative storytellers who entered this competition! There was a serious cat theme but there were some strikingly creative entries along the way too.
Cultured_atom used skillful storytelling and stuck strictly to the 30 word limit to tell the tale of a curious mind. We thought it was great! Introspective_bilberry was also a winner. They used a perfect poem to tell us about the journey that curiosity can you lead us on. It was brilliant!
You can read the winning entries in the orange boxes below.
WEEKLY COMPETITION #5:
A 30 word story about curiosity
This week, the competition's focus is on storytelling and curiosity. The challenge is quality rather than quantity. So, can you tell a story about curiosity in just 30 words? You can interpret that in any way you want and be as creative as you like! Here's my try:
They say that ‘curiosity killed the cat’, but they don’t know what really happened. I was lurking in the shadows last night, and saw the villain arrive, quiet as anything.
Have a go! A primary and secondary winner will be announced next Friday.

they say that "curiosity killed a man", they don't know how he got killed or what actually happened.
I was really worried about that man last night, meanwhile when I was lurking someone came and did something very strange.

They say curiosity killed the cat but I how did the cat get killed or what happened. This is very strange. I was quite confused. What does this saying even mean
free_tornado | Beverley St Nicholas Primary School A | United Kingdom | United Kingdom 05 Oct 2018
Last weak I sat on a cat and the cat was curious what I was eating because I farted on him and didn’t really like it because it smelt like eggs.

How did the cat know what it smelt like? Why did you sit on the cat? What had the cat done wrong to be farted on?

they say that curiosity killed the dog but the dog would bark if someone tried to hurt him and also why was the dog curious unless someone was there??
wonderful_argument | Beverley St Nicholas Primary School A | United Kingdom | United Kingdom 05 Oct 2018
Ignore first comment/ Last week I went to the shop and I saw a dog staring at me because I was eating a snicker it was so curious so I walked away but it still followed me and then died.
inventive_sparrow | Beverley St Nicholas Primary School A | United Kingdom | United Kingdom 05 Oct 2018
‘They say that curiosity killed the cat’but It was only curious because there was a Mouse on the road therefore the cat wonted to eat it.
consistent_wolf | Beverley St Nicholas Primary School A | United Kingdom | United Kingdom 05 Oct 2018
Say if there was a dog on the Path and oviously if there was something happining it might go on the road but what would happen some thing curious happen or some thing upsetting but you will never know, and that’s what people want to be curious.

“Oh yes!” I thought I’d been waiting for ages. I grabbed it eagerly ; I couldn’t wait to open it . If I’d known what would happen, I might have thought differently.
fearless_wolverine | Noel Park Primary School | United Kingdom 05 Oct 2018
They it it was curiosity that made me change, and I let them believe it. But that isn’t strictly the truth. What really happened was so much worse...

I looked at a cat for so long it got curious and ran,then it started to bend in an unusual way from curiosity.

They thought curiosity killed me,
but that isn’t really true.
What had really happened,
they don’t have a clue.
I was playing in my garden,
when a wicked witch appeared...
marvellous_tree | Noel Park Primary School | United Kingdom 05 Oct 2018
When I first got the mystery box I thought it was a game but it was a posinus frog game that made you ugly . I will never open it again

authentic_moon | Noel Park Primary School | United Kingdom 05 Oct 2018
They say that “curiousity is just a open door” How would we know that? Well, what if it just shuts right In your face??? This is really interesting and mysterious.
cultured_atom | Noel Park Primary School | United Kingdom 05 Oct 2018
If you’re curious I’ll show you my box.In it is a snowman with a rumbling belly,a Chinese dragon which spits grass and a witch riding a white horse!

They said that curiosity can kill you but I did not believe that it was true . I thought curiosity can save save you as I spotted a burglar go in it
amusing_impression | Noel Park Primary School | United Kingdom 05 Oct 2018
They say that “curiosity was boring” but in the end it’s fun and if you add more excitement it will be more amazing towards your learning and entertain you a lot .
cherished_petal | Noel Park Primary School | United Kingdom 05 Oct 2018
I wonder how my pencil keeps on floating when I look at it?Is it magic.Am I controlling it ? If only my curiosity hadn’t got the better of me

I saw a unknown creature entering my house in the most mysterious and creepiest way possible if I knew it was following me I would have never opened my door to go inside. But what was it? Where did it come from? How did it know I was here? I'm still CURIOUS!
interesting_tiger | Noel Park Primary School | United Kingdom 05 Oct 2018
They said that Mr Bean is a curious man ,but i can prove it wrong,he wears a silly and mysterious tie,I wonder where did he brought that from.
modest_boysenberry | Ormiston Bushfield Academy A | United Kingdom | United Kingdom 05 Oct 2018
Curiosity has often killed, but tonight it will be killed. My pet(creature) is ready for the catch, it's tired of being curios. It's coming curiosity. You better watch out.
gentle_melon | Graveney School | United Kingdom | United Kingdom 05 Oct 2018
People of England said to me ''curiosity killed the world peace''. I had no idea what it ment or what had happened. I am still curious can you help!

I was in a dark woods when I saw a giant flame. Mysteriously a dark shadow lurked over to me. Who are you? Why are you here? I am so CURIOS.
honorable_currant | Graveney School | United Kingdom | United Kingdom 05 Oct 2018
We are all curious about something. What i'm curious about is how Brent Troshman died from a peanut allergy when our school (Marie Antoinette's School for Girls) is "Nut Free"
trusting_politics | Ormiston Bushfield Academy A | United Kingdom | United Kingdom 05 Oct 2018
In Myanmar Rohinga people are being killed. Nobody is doing anything to stop it and somebody has got to take responsibility. Who will it be? What can/will they do?

There was a very ancient saying: Curiosity killed the cat.
I lay on his back and considered this .I had no idea what a cat was or why curiosity would kill one,but I did empathise completely with that proverbial creature.
" If you move," said the voice above me " I will crush your throat." I lay very still beneath the weight of the man on top of me...
Some say curiosity did kill the cat ,some say it didn't,but there are also other stories behind this one that no one knows.

They say that curiosity killed her,
But is that really true?
She said that she was fine,
We knew she had a secret,
Which she said that no one knew.
Yet the day that she said that
Something happened...
and no one ever knew.
persuasive_anteater | Boutcher CofE Primary A | United Kingdom 06 Oct 2018
A pupil was outraged by the strictly enforced academic style of teaching. With their curiosity, they constructed a balanced teaching mechanism. Soon after, he was expelled.

Not many people know about the Myanmar issue. I didn't know about it until we started this in BNC and I am curious to find out more ow about you?

Clouds of questions float over heads, painting a world we build in our heads.
Longing comes naturally, falling in love.
36 bounds of curiousity opens the floodgates of our cove.
credible_insect | Ormiston Bushfield Academy A | United Kingdom | United Kingdom 08 Oct 2018
They say that 'curiosity started a war' but did it start on its own?
A secret in the corner
Lurking in the dark
Guns and weapons
But where did they start?
What a great challenge! I found it really hard to stick to 30 words.
Here's my go at a 30-word story:
Yesterday I passed a snail wearing a top-hat. I asked him where he was going, dressed so smartly? His brother’s birthday party, he said. I joined them for delicious cake.

Today I passed a homeless man, he was suffering for food, I gave him some money, he got a pack of crisps. A man said what "what are you doing out here come with me?" the man joined with him and got himself a home. I was happy for the homeless man.

A scientist’s curiosity led him to the aliens, dangerous aliens. Since then he has disappeared. The last place known to be where he was was the forest. I went... and died!!!
considerate_grasshopper | Maritime Academy | United Kingdom 08 Oct 2018
I was walking in the forest, and met a squirrel. I asked it where it was going, because it was speeding towards the trees. He said he is going shopping.
harmonious_seahorse | Maritime Academy | United Kingdom 08 Oct 2018
Today I passed a squirrel and asked him where he was going ; he told me that he was going to the moon I wondered why. Would he do the moonwalk?

A man lived by himself with only joy to keep him going. One day he went out to buy some bread and as he walked passed he found himself curious.

They say curiosity killed the cat,but they never said how or why it died.This concerned me as it could mean anything ,this is why I was extremely confused.
great_brain | Maritime Academy | United Kingdom 08 Oct 2018
I think that the cat could get killed by curiosity because if he is curios about something dangerous and someone is the villain he can be killed by the villain...

Curiosity leads to death. Death leads to curiosity. The fog deepened as I cautiously roamed the graveyard. The trees didn’t move. As if they were dead. Bushes rustled in the moonlight.

I think that you did the right thing because everyone has the chance to be equal🙂

loving_attitude | Maritime Academy | United Kingdom 08 Oct 2018
It doesn’t matter how many paragraphs you write or how many lines you write you could write a few sentences and make a masterpiece! As long as you try your hardest, then you can do anything you put your mind to. No one can tell you that you have to write a lot for it to be amazing. The other week, I did my 11 plus and my dad asked me how many pages I wrote. I thought he was disappointed in me but it doesn’t matter how much you write. It is quality over quantity.

I saw an adult walking past an old man lying on the floor, helpless, the cruel adult just ran away but when a toddler went past he helped the man up.
This shows that adults are not always the most polite people in the world sometimes even the littlest people ever can be the better person.

Curiosity is often a good thing but too much of it in the wrong circumstances can be deadly. As the cat found out when it tried to cross the road.

Curiosity, in my opinion i would say curiosity depends on every ones mind. So this can be the way someone has planned their lives. In some other ways it might be that someone wants to know something.

A few days ago, my nan and I was baking in her kitchen when her dog ran outside with curiosity. We followed her out in to the garden and all she did was sit by the fence so we went back in. Later my nans dog came back in and tugged my trousers so I followed her and found a hurt hedgehog laying in a hole I called my nan and we saved the hedgehog. So curiosity actually helped a little baby hedgehog.

"Curiosity killed the cat". A drunken and poor driver ran over a cat searching for food and hid the evidence. The young child sobbed her eyes out at her loss.

last weekend I pasted a curious man. He was 8 ft. Are you a basketball player? No but do you are tall do you want to play.

What happened here? He shouted, intrigued about the mystifying scene unfolding. A dead body. A pin. A cat. And a sweet. The sweet. It was the sweet that killed him.

"Curiosity killed the cat". Curiosity technically cannot kill a cat because a cat has nine lives therefore the saying should be changed to a different being or animal. It is only a saying though.

If we weren't curious, we would make mistakes never,
But if we were never curious,
if we didn’t make mistakes or risks,
we would stay clueless and unknowledgeable forever.

I think that this means a man had been had been figuring out a plot made by some villians but was captured and killed. Another man had witnessed his death.

I was playing happily outside with my mates and I was just about to score when suddenly ... I was playing in the world cup scoring the same goal...

They say curiosity killed me
Yet that's what they see
I was walking to the shop
And suddenly I heard a loud POP!
It was a bat!
Chasing a rat!
A creative use of poetry! Well done, you have been awarded a star for storytelling!

The curious cat wandered across the street looking for something to eat. He went to the pier at the beach to find some fish to eat. he looked around, but couldn't find any food to eat ,so he wandered home and on the way he spotted a mouse to catch and bring it home for a present, his owner was curious why he thought that was a nice thing to bring into a home.

Curiosity can be your downfall. It can lead you into the frozen-over lake, over the thin ice. But curiosity can be your ability, if you learn to control it.

I walked down the narrow alley five years ago, wish I hadn't. They say curiosity kills the cat. It almost did. I now have five fractured bones. Seen by villians...

I travelled to Spain to meet my friend. He lived in Madrid. Four hours later, I arrived at her house. When I went through the door, she was dead. Oh my!

They say that curiosity killed the cat; do they know how it got killed? A dark, slender figure hid in the cupboard, waiting to answer to the cat's curious mind......

I was on a rollercoaster when it stopped. I wondered what was going on? Then down we shot down! I heard somebody say it was faulty, was my life at risk?

They say curiosity killed the cat yet how did the cat pass. Was it the cat's curiousness or was it what was waiting for it the whole time...
incredible_seagull | Ormiston Bushfield Academy A | United Kingdom | United Kingdom 11 Oct 2018
Curiosity did not kill the cat as the real culprit was hiding in the shadows ready to pounce I know this because curiosity led me to watching from above...

Although curiosity is said to have killed the cat.
What would happen if we hid it under a hat?
With no sense of exploration,
We would acquire no more information.

They told everyone curiosity killed the me:
but that is what they think
But i smelt something that stunk
So i checked what was going on
I hear a bang
I see a dog
Getting hit by a log
And then I lastly hear a POP
authentic_road | Ormiston Bushfield Academy A | United Kingdom | United Kingdom 11 Oct 2018
Ignore my other comment. They all talk about how curiosity killed me:
but that is what they think
So one day i was walking down the street.
To see a cat that is weak
So i went over to see
I saw something beastly
and the last thing I saw was a bumblebee

He stepped
She stepped
He clapped she clapped
Space between only air could go through...
A mirror
she stood inside
he tapped the glass
He was now inside
-curiosity trapped the man-

My dog was interested in the smell of paint. He ran up to a ladder which was strong with the scent. POW! The bucket of red paint fell on him.

The world turned sideways
The cars broke down
Thunder and lightning ruled the sky
But still she walked forwards
Hoping to find out the secret...
The secret that she was never told.
