The Boy In The Striped Pyjamas Lieutenant Kotler



Kotler is a young soldier who we met when Bruno was about to move to Out-With. It was like he was one of the soldiers that Bruno's father really liked. Bruno doesn't like Kotler much because he has an attitude and he calls him `little man` because Bruno is small. He makes Bruno feel cold. Like at one part of the book Bruno asked Kotler a favour for a spare tyre to make a swing. Bruno's sister Gretel liked Kotler so she flirted with him a lot. So Gretel was with Kotler in Bruno's garden ans when Bruno asked the favour from Kotler he got very sarcastic and said and he carries it on him!" Kotler is also a mean man. He likes to hurt people like Pavel (the waiter.) He accidentally spilled wine over his lap and he got very mad and he hurt him. He also shot a dog for barking! He is only 19 years old and he is flirting with Bruno's mother! He is a very strange and mean man but he is a very good character in the book.

Learning about John F.Kennedy.



John F.Kennedy
One of our pupils 007 brought in a newspaper dated the day after J.F.K. was killed
We got this information from it. John F. Kennedy was killed on Friday 22nd November 1963.
John F. Kennedy was the 35th President at the age of 46. He was shot in the brain,
temple and neck at 2:00pm outside the Park Land hospital. He was shot by a rifle
and the guy that was driving was wounded. Lyndon B Johnson was sworn in at 3:30pm.
He was flown from Love Field Airfield, Dallas. They said he felt no pain and died in 40 minutes. He was a PT boat Commandant in the war. He was president for 2 years 10 months and 2 days. In the first car there was Kennedy and in the 2nd, the secret service and in the 3rd the Johnsons. New York listened in silence to the news and turned away sad. They said they should get on with it as Mr.Kennedy would.
