Yesterday we had our senior swimming sports. The children who participated had a great day, and the children not swimming were fantastic supporters of their friends and classmates. Room 9 did especially well, particularly in the relay against the older classes!!

 

Happy Easter everyone, Have a lovely few days off. Remember school starts back Wednesday 30/3/16. Hope you all have a nice time with your families.

we have been busy talking about Easter and thinking about why we have this special holiday. below are some pictures of what we have learned and our discussions, and look at how hard we are working writing about what we love about Easter!

On monday we had the last of our special visitors for monday rotation, we have been learning about insects and they have loved sharing the big kids in room 9's room.

This term we have been reading James and the Giant peach, this week in art we have been making a giant peach for our classroom display. Keep watching this space for more developments!!

We had our last snag golf yesterday, room 9 has made huge leaps from the beginning, some of room 9 were hitting the ball almost the whole length of the field, it was an impressive display.

IMPORTANT NOTE TO PARENTS

PLEASE ENSURE YOUR CHILDREN ARE DOING THEIR MATH, SPELLING AND READING HOMEWORK EVERY NIGHT. IT ONLY TAKES HALF AN HOUR, AND THIS GREATLY IMPACTS THEIR SCHOOL WORK ALSO. PLEASE HELP YOUR CHILDREN BY SUPPORTING THEM AND HELPING THEM WITH THEIR HOMEWORK.

MANY MANY THANKS AMY EWEN

Following up on or friday maths strand statistics we looked at birthday months today, looks like January and October are the most popular months!

During the week as a class we talked about what are good things to have for breakfast and what are bad things to have for breakfast! Good to see that room 9 knows the good from the bad.

We have been doing PAT testing online, when the chromebooks are involved everyone works well and concentrates!

Yesterday the junior school were treated to a trip to the zoo!! We had a fun and educational day, we learnt about giraffes, reptiles, native birds, orangutans, meerkats, tasmanian devil and spider monkeys to name a few. We also hung like monkeys!! The weather was nice enough for all the animals to come out and great us. Great day for everyone.
