"UFO" lands in playground
When we came back to school after the Christmas holidays, there was a big commotion in the juniors’ playground.
Children and staff were baffled at what was tucked shyly away behind the trees. Green goo was dispersed everywhere and abnormal footprints climbed the walls. An emergency assembly was called and we were told what had happened.
Apparently, Annette, the caretaker’s wife, saw the UFO land. She claims it was just after eight o’clock when she heard a loud bang and saw flashing lights coming from the woods of our playground.
She immediately told her husband, who called the police. At first, they thought it was teenagers messing around with fireworks but, when they went to look, a strange object was awaiting them.
A forensic scientist came and took away samples of the goo and a green crystal found by the bench near the UFO. A few days later, he sent us a letter saying that the crystal was a radioactive substance and the goo was found mainly on Mars.
We were also shown some footage of a UFO near Coppettes Wood Primary School, heading straight for our school!
The school has been interviewing children from the infants on what they think it might be.
The answers were: a robot crab, electric ladybird, a robot spider, that it was a flying saucer and the alien was down at the cafe! Some even claim that they saw it hit the London Eye on New Year’s Eve!
However, in the juniors it’s a different story. Hardly any of us believe it’s real and we all think it’s probably a hoax.
NASA have now taken the UFO away to be analysed! Some people think it’s scary, some think it’s amazing, others think it’s a hoax. Is there really life out there?
It really was an experience we will never forget.

That's really freaky. I think that it was probably a prank pulled off by some kids, because to be honest, it looks like it's fake. On the other hand, if it really is real, then that is SCARY!
