YOUNG MUSICIANS

FREO
My parents play in a band so there is always music in our
house. 1 started playing the piano when I was six after I heard
a very young girl play at a concert. She was just five years old
but she was as good as an adult professional pianist. My first
concert was at the age of nine. 1'11 never forget how scared
1 was but once I was at the piano I relaxed and just thought
about the music.

OLGA
My parents are both doctors but they really enjoy listening to
music. My mother played the piano when she was young so
she asked me if I wanted to learn to play something. 1 chose
the violin but it isn't easy. Sometimes I get angry when I can't
play the right way. 1 don't know if 1'11 keep playing it: 1 also play
tennis three times a week and it's a bit tiring doing everything,
so I guess 1'11 have to choose.

BRIAW
l've always loved music since I was a little child: my father told
me I started dancing as soon as I heard classical music on
the radio. That's why when I was four I started piano lessons.
However, my teacher wasn't very friendly. 1 sometimes got
bored with the exercises he gave me, so a year later I asked
my parents if I could have singing lessons instead. 1 really
enjoy singing: 1 often sing with my brother, who plays the
guitar. lt's so exciting!

MY ORGANIC GARDEN
by Larry Davidson, age 13

Last year my family and I started to make our own fruit and vegetable garden. We wanted to do
something for our planet so we decided to grow our own plants organically. This means that we
only use natural ways to look after them. For example, we put our old fruit and vegetables on
the ground where the plants grow, but other people just throw all their old food in the bin.
Also, now we grow our own fruit and vegetables, so we don 't need to buy them.

Having an organic garden is clearly a healthier option because the fruit and vegetables you grow
will be safe for people and animals, too. We had to work very hard. At first, we were afraid
because we might not have enough time to do everything, but then we realised that each of us
could look after the garden on different days.

To make our garden we used a large wooden box which was about the size of our kitchen table.
We cleaned it and made 20 holes at the bottom for the water to drain out. We covered the holes
with sorne little stones and the soil where the plants could grow.

Then we planted very tiny plants and watered them every day. On the left we planted tomatoes,
onions, carrots and potatoes, while on the right there were a few melons and strawberries.
In about a month we picked our first fruits and vegetables. We were so excited when he had
them for dinner!
