THE
DESPICABLE ME 3

Gru, a supervillain, is disheartened when an unknown supervillain steals the Great

Pyramid of Giza. Gru, with the assistance of Dr. Nefarious and Minions resolves to
one up this mystery rival by shrinking and stealing the moon. As it would be costly
to steal the moon, Gru seeks a loan from Bank Evil. However, the bank’s presi-
dent is impressed by the plan and will provide him with money only if Gru obtains
the necessary shrink ray. Unfortunately, President Son Vector steals it first! Gru
gets involved also with three orphans :Margo, Edith and Agnes. He adopts them
and plans to use them to get Vector’s shrink ray. Finally Gru succeeds in stealing
the Moon and so beats Vector He decided ,though, to put it back!

I love animals but most of all I like dinosaurs!!I

have lots of toys and books about them. Dinosaurs
lived millions of years before but nowadays none of
them exists anymore.
There were two main categories of dinosaurs: the
carnivores and the herbivores. The carnivores ate
other animals to survive and the herbivores ate just
plants or herbs.
There were lots of sizes of dinosaurs :small like
birds and big, bigger than elephants!
Dinosaurs were reptiles and they appeared during the
Triassic period but died 200 million years ago.
Each of them can create a different story. That’s
why so many films have been filmed about them. My
favorite is T Rex because they were huge, clever
and superstrong.
My wish to come true is one day to visit the Mu-
seum of Natural history in New York!!!

VIENNA ONE OF THE BEST CHRISTMAS HOLIDAY DESTINATIONS

IN EUROPE
CHRISTMAS MARKETS

 These attract millions of visitors each year, and for a reason. They’re just great.

 Forget for a moment the bustle and stress of modern life and travel back to a simpler age

 Breathe in the aroma of sausages, the sweet smell of toffee apples and the fragrance of countless
scented candles.

 Fill your eyes with the soft lights and dazzling displays of artists, cooks and shopkeepers.

 Then eat, drink and generally be as merry as a reindeer in a carrot field.

EVENTS AND ACTIVITIES

Many museums, palaces and other attractions stay open throughout the Christmas period, but there are some
seasonal sights and sounds to enjoy, too.

Traditional extras around the Rathaus Christmas market are choir singing and brass bands.

In 2017, the bands play around the Christmas tree from 8pm to 8.30pm each day from December 1 to Decem-
ber 23.

The choirs sing in the Festsaal (main chamber) of the Rathaus

(city hall) itself and come from all over the world. Performances
take place on Fridays, weekends and public holiday afternoons
from December 1 to December 24. The entrance is the front
center of the Rathaus. You can also find a choir singing most
days at around 6pm on a stage within the Christmas market
itself. Alkis Chatzopoulos 3rd Grade
