End of Term Treat

Today we had an end of term treat. We got to watch a movie called "Back to the Sea" it was a about a fish who wanted to go back to the sea. We got to lie down on the ground with the cushions and eat a lollipop. 

We really enjoyed the movie.  

Wastebusters Award

We have won the WASTEBUSTERS AWARD again!!
Here is Fletcher with the award. We have the cleanest classroom in the whole universe.

Harold the Giraffe

This week Harold was at our school. We went and visited Harold. He taught us lots of things like the names of body parts, to eat healthy food, to exercise, and we learnt we are all VIP (very important people).

Harold sang us a song, he told us some jokes and he even blew us some kisses! We blew kisses back to Harold. 

Here are some photos of us in front of Harold's Truck. We creeped like little mice around the back to get a photo. We had to be sneaky and quiet because there was another class in Harold's truck.  

Welcome

Room One Prayers and Sharing

Here are some photos from Room One's assembly Prayers and Sharing.

All the wonderful children did a fabulous job of speaking an sharing their art work or being a Disciple.

Fable Reading

Today some children from Room 8 came and read their stories to us. They wrote fables, we learnt that fables are stories with a moral at the end, a moral is a lesson.
The children made the books all by themselves. Room One really enjoyed it.

Jump Jam

Twice a week we do Jump Jam. Jump Jam is for fitness, it gets our muscles working and our heart pumping. The children learn a new song every few weeks. we love Jump Jam.

Here are some photos.
