From red to blue to green and every colour in between. Small bugs crawl among them, nibbling away at natures feast. There could be anything lurking in the bushes and undergrowth, from the ferocious tiger to the humble, majestic deer. Good and bad live in the jungle, but it’s not hard to tell the two apart. There was something rustling in the bushes, the birds fell silent and the whole forest seemed to pause. Out of the undergrowth a great orange beast emerged…….

Everything was silent you could hear the bugs walking on the floor, the tiger pounced he missed the gazelle is on the run, the chase is on, the tiger leaps into action he’s running, running he is catching up his prey one final stretch. Thud the gazelle had hit the ground the lion caught his prey the chase was all over. sammi bobaldo :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) [SEPTEMBER 27, 2017 AT 4:26 PM](https://stgregorysblogyear6.wordpress.com/2016/10/14/tiger-tiger/#comment-639) As the gigantic swirling hurricane swept over the huge Amazon rainforest, uprooting trees and bushes in its wake, a tiger slinked through the thick undergrowth which even the cyclone could not penetrate. Up ahead was its main prey. Deer. As it crept up to them in the blinding mist and the incredible wind as fast as a peregrine falcon at top speed it bared its jagged, skin-piercing fangs and let loose an ear-splitting blood-curdling roar. The deer, which were now alerted to the tigers presence, galloped off as strips of lightning tore through the sky. The tiger sped off after them like a speeding bullet and in the blink of an eye all the deer had been withdrawed to a pile of tough, uneatable bones. Harry Ode [SEPTEMBER 27, 2017 AT 4:32 PM](https://stgregorysblogyear6.wordpress.com/2016/10/14/tiger-tiger/#comment-644) Pouncing on its prey, the vicious tiger digs its greasy slimy teeth into the agonised wild boar. Lightening strikes across the mangroves and thunder bellows through the stormy skies. The rain crashes down like a herd of elephants running across the plain and seeps through the tall reeds. Footsteps suddenly creep up on the tiger – would this be the tiger’s doom? Kate Moores [SEPTEMBER 27, 2017 AT 7:17 PM](https://stgregorysblogyear6.wordpress.com/2016/10/14/tiger-tiger/#comment-650) The trees stretch their arms over the silky grass that lies below silently. The sky rolls by as the sun smiles down on the beauty of the forest. Bright fruits glimmer in the sunlight that peeks through the plants. Leaves shake like they fear the world around them. The wind ruffles the fur of the mysterious, fascinating creature that bowed down in the ground ready to pounce… James Baxter [SEPTEMBER 28, 2017 AT 8:00 PM](https://stgregorysblogyear6.wordpress.com/2016/10/14/tiger-tiger/#comment-654) Crouching in the long mangroves, the camouflaged tiger was sheltering from the ghastly winds and the driving rain. With his jaw open and teeth glinting the tiger is eagerly waiting to spring through the undergrowth and snare his prey… Luke fitzsimons [SEPTEMBER 29, 2017 AT 8:29 AM](https://stgregorysblogyear6.wordpress.com/2016/10/14/tiger-tiger/#comment-655) The trees winding leaves twisted and turned to block out all the secrets the forest lay before it. There were plants that were so iconic, you could see them from miles away. The grass moved slowly in the wind and the fruits of the jungle sparkled in the sunlight. A glimpse of it would take your breath away. Silently waiting, the mysterious character that lay before you… He is coming, coming to get you Katie Hardyman [SEPTEMBER 29, 2017 AT 7:49 PM](https://stgregorysblogyear6.wordpress.com/2016/10/14/tiger-tiger/#comment-657) Hunting fiercely, the determined tiger perched in the wild grass waiting for his prey to come by. The trees lay beside the tiger, twigs were falling off as the wind was that strong. The tiger lay camouflaged in the long silky grass awaiting for the antelopes to come past. In the distance sounds of galloping could be heard-could this be the tigers prey? Alex [SEPTEMBER 29, 2017 AT 8:20 PM](https://stgregorysblogyear6.wordpress.com/2016/10/14/tiger-tiger/#comment-658) THE PREDATORS RAINFOREST. Bearing viciously its huge bloodcurdling teeth, the deadly tiger circled single-handed lay upon its unexpecting prey. In moments, the tiger had the poor creature, surrounded by its gigantic claws, like a huge swirling hurricane. In the midst of the rainforest, underneath the unprenatrateable lucsous undergrowth was the blazing sun and incredible beings… Swiftly whipping back and forth the battered, torn tail that looked like it barely survived a war clashed with the colour of the almighty rainforest. The prey, which was now aware of the creatures presense let loose a pirceing scream. Swiping thoughtlessly, its huge burly arms the tigers eerie, twisted glare from its red, bloodshot eyes was the most threatening, yet deadly, part of the body. The silky, glistening striped fur shimmered in the sunlight. Despite its clumsy appearance, the tiger can’t even be heard before it abruptly pounced upon prey. The only thing that could warn you of a fierce attack is a blood-reeling skriek echoing in the distance… Isabelle Hough [OCTOBER 1, 2017 AT 10:47 AM](https://stgregorysblogyear6.wordpress.com/2016/10/14/tiger-tiger/#comment-667) Prowling stealthily beneath the tall grass the tiger watched its prey, ready to pounce. Hiding in the roots of the symphonia globulifera, time stood still as the blinding sun shone through the twisting branches. There it was, crouching and getting ready to pounce, the tiger crept forwards growling. Could tonight be the night where the antelope gets eaten to its very flesh? Freya [OCTOBER 1, 2017 AT 3:08 PM](https://stgregorysblogyear6.wordpress.com/2016/10/14/tiger-tiger/#comment-670) Crouching down and getting ready to pounce, the tiger had flashing speckles of amber in his eyes. He was determined to claim this prize as his own. The wind was giving a gentle breeze making the plants around him sway. The colour in this grassy world was camouflaging his glossy coat. Was this creature even aware of his presence? He could hear a strange scuttling coming from a bush nearby that usually would have intrigued him , but today he wanted the bigger prize. Jojo [OCTOBER 1, 2017 AT 8:11 PM](https://stgregorysblogyear6.wordpress.com/2016/10/14/tiger-tiger/#comment-673) Underneath the overcast sky, the wind hissed through the jungle plants and vegetation. The spooky looking trees waved like ghostly figures over the main attraction. There he was the mighty tiger tiger prowling slowly carefully. But what was he focused on, I ask myself? I was nervous yet waited in anticipation to find out… [ FSC Day](https://www.st-gregorys-pri.lancs.sch.uk/blog/2018-05-31-15-29-37-fsc-day) [Adjectives, Verbs and Adverbs ](https://www.st-gregorys-pri.lancs.sch.uk/blog/2018-05-31-15-44-48-adjectives-verbs-and-adverbs) ### Comments ##### Will *6 November 2018* In the tall twisted grass, the sound of the warm rain pattered on a variety of plants that ranged from all colours. Suddenly, there was a crunch that bellowed through the forest. A tiger, with a furocious face pranced out of the brightly coloured leaves that was soon followed by a humongous roar. The birds scattered. The twining branches waved because of the birds speed. The leaves clinged to the twins twisted trees time stood still ### Leave a Comment ![St. Gregory’s Catholic Primary School](https://files.schudio.com/stgregoryscpschorley/images/logo/03f2fdfc-2593-47db-add8-2385bccd3bd9(1).png) #### St. Gregory’s Catholic Primary School Eaves Green Rd Chorley Lancashire PR7 3QG 01257 263865 #### Useful Links - [Contact Us](https://www.st-gregorys-pri.lancs.sch.uk/contact) - [Prospectus](https://www.st-gregorys-pri.lancs.sch.uk/our-school/prospectus) - [Newsletters](https://www.st-gregorys-pri.lancs.sch.uk/events-and-dates/newsletters) - [Events](https://www.st-gregorys-pri.lancs.sch.uk/events) #### Social Media - [Instagram (Whole School)](https://www.instagram.com/sgcpschorley/) - [Instagram (EYFS)](https://www.instagram.com/sgcpschorley_eyfs/#) © Copyright 2015–2026 St. Gregory’s Catholic Primary School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://www.st-gregorys-pri.lancs.sch.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
