The Missing Trophy

On a sunny Saturday morning at Rimu Primary School, Emma arrived early for the school assembly. She was the sports captain and needed to present the netball trophy to the winning team. But when she opened the trophy cabinet in the hall, her heart sank. The shiny silver trophy was missing!

Emma searched everywhere – behind the cabinet, in the storeroom, even under the stage. Nothing. The assembly was starting in fifteen minutes, and parents were already arriving. She felt her cheeks go red with worry.

Just as Emma was about to tell the principal, her friend Jake ran up to her, slightly out of breath. "Emma! I found it!" he panted. "The cleaners moved it to the office yesterday because they were polishing the cabinet. I saw it when I dropped off the attendance folder this morning."

Emma rushed to the office, grabbed the trophy, and made it back to the hall just as the assembly began. She took a deep breath and smiled with relief. Crisis solved!
