Meeting our Buddies!

We have been spending time with our buddy class (room 12). Mr McKay has taught us how to speed stack. We have had a great time learning to stack the cups quickly!

Matchbox Homework

Have a look at some of the interesting things we brought into school for our matchbox homework assignment. We practiced speaking with a clear voice and shared why our items are special to us. It was a great way to learn about each other!

Weekly Wednesday Football!

Last week we had our first football practice. We are learning so much already!

Welcome Back!

Room 9 blog updates to come!

EOTC WEEK!

Education outside the classroom (EOTC) week has been so much fun!! We especially enjoyed PLAYING at AVALON PARK and EXPLORING and DIGGING at the BEACH! Enjoy the photos!

Letters to Santa

Last week we went for a walk to the post office. Ethan, our SUPER STAR, had the important job of posting our letters to the NORTH POLE! We can't wait to hear back!!

ART AUCTION!

As many of you have probably already heard... Muritai School is having an ART AUCTION!! Each class is creating one or two collaborative art pieces for the auction (which is happening on DEC. 2nd). All of the money raised will be donated to a school in Cambodia. We are so happy to be taking part in such a great event for a fantastic cause!!

Here are a few photos for a sneak preview of room four's art pieces... Mrs Naik could only take a few photos because she was soon covered in PAINT!!
Enjoy!!

SHADOW SHAPES!

As part of our inquiry on SUN SAFETY we had a close look at our SHADOWS. We found out that when our body blocks the sun it creates a shadow. We had a great time making interesting shadow shapes!

Then we traced our buddy's shadow with chalk. We had a big laugh at the funny outlines that emerged!

SUN SAFETY!!

For Inquiry this term we have been learning about SUN SAFETY! Today we went on a walk in the playground in search of some SHADY areas where we can go if we get TOO hot!!

Welcome Back!

We have had a great start to Term 4! I hope you have all had a restful holiday to get ready for the busy term ahead! Just a few reminders:

All children should have sunhats at school this week.

Please ensure your child had a drink bottle at school, filled with WATER for those HOT summer days!

We will be practicing for Cross country on Mondays, Thursdays and Fridays so please make sure your child is wearing suitable running shoes.

We also have an EXCITING art project in the making so keep checking our blog to find out more about what we are doing!
