Toitoi

We have had a chance to read the latest toitoi book.  One of the students from our school had their story published in this one.  His name is Konzay.

Thank you Toitoi for the chance to read stories written by children our age and for publishing our stories.

ANZAC

ANZAC is my most favourite time of the year.  I feel so grateful to all the men and women who had courage and fought for me and my freedom.

As a class we decided to create a poppy solider for our ANZAC service on the last week of term.  It was hard and took a lot of time, but we got it finished and we were all so proud of it.

Duffy books

We are so lucky to be a Duffy books school.  Just like Duffy our whole class wants to read themselves around the world and Duffy makes that happen.

Amera says "we can read them at home".
Malachi says "there are lots of pictures in the books" and Solomon said with a big grin "I love reading!!!!"
Ong Manout says "Duffy books are great for reading and I love reading too".

Swimming

Another year, another term of learning how to swim.

It was great to get into the pool during our very hot summer.  We found that the more we swam, the better we became.  It was also great splashing around and laughing with each other.

Welcome to room 9 2018

As the new term starts we find our class with Y4 and Y5 students.
One of the first things we had to do was to learn to work together.

This activity was cup stacking with a twist.  You could not touch the cups with your hands and you needed to work together with the rest of the group to get the cups up and stacked.  It took some time..... but eventually the whole class were successful.

Magic Maddy

Last week we had our school speeches.  Madisyn, Agueer, Faye, and Jacob represented our class.  All credit to them for the work they put into doing this.
Madisyn was the overall winner with Faye taking third place.  Below is the speech for you to view.
