The Asthma Show


Today, on a sunny morning, we had a show on asthma in the Glenbrae School Hall.This show was hosted by a man named Chris who was dressed in a blue suit and looked so handsome.


Chris talked to us about Asthma.Chris said that Asthma was really bad and it affected our lungs and breathing.People feel as if they are breathing in a small straw.


We learnt from Chris that Asthma was caused by Flower pollen, Smoke, Virus, Animal fur, Dust Mites and Cold air.He told us that we could use the asthma inhaler to help us breath if we suffer.


Later on in the show,Chris introduced a fish named Sailor, The fish Sailor is the big fat orangey and greeny. Sailor was a funny fish because he flipped his tail when Chris was singing a song about asthma.

Image result for inhaler pumpI felt excited because when Chris was singing he said the words so fast and i was shocked and happy.

Cher Ami was a female homing pigeon who had been donated by the pigeon fanciers of Britain for use by the U.S. Army Signal Corps in France during World War I and had been trained by American pigeoneers. He delivered 12 important messages and saved 200 soldiers life within the American sector at Verdun, France. On his last mission,Cher Ami was shot through the breast by enemy fire,but managed to return to his loft.


She died in 1919 as a result of his battle wounds. "Cher Ami" was later inducted into the Racing Pigeon Hall of Fame in 1931 and received a gold medal from the Organized Bodies of American Racing Pigeon Fanciers in recognition of his extraordinary service during World War I.
