Disco

On Thursday at lunch time we had a Year 1 - 4 disco. We danced and played games. Loren and Jayden won prizes. It was an animal theme. It was lots of fun.

Ronald McDonald

On Wednesday Ronald McDonald came to get us moving for "My Greatest Feat". We are wearing pedometers and trying to get as many steps as we can in a day.

Heart Jump Jam

Today we had red mufti day and went to the hall for jump jam. This was to raise money for Heart Children. A wee girl came along who is a Heart child. She has had open heart surgery.

How to make a drip sound

The Wonky Donkey man sang a song about drips. He made a fantastic drip sound. At the end of the song he told us how to do it.

Wonky Donkey

Today Craig Smith came to school to perform for us. He is an author and a musician. He played the guitar and harmonica and we got to sing parts with him. His book, Wonky Donkey has just been voted childrens most popular book at a National Book Awards. He is making a new book called the Buzzy Bee. He read us the story of his new book. At the end we got his signature.

Work

We have learnt more about our chosen HERO's and spend time looking on the computer to find out information. We have also sent letters away so we hope people will reply to us soon.
In story writing we are learning how to write interesting narrative stories about pirates. We are going to learn how to make a movie so our stories will be published that way. Maybe Room 13 might come and help us.
We have Wok and Wal coming on Friday and next week we have a disco on Thursday and on Friday The Wonky Donky man coming back.....its going to be very busy!

cross country

we all went to the cross country on Wednesday. It was great weather for it. We ran in 2 groups - Year 3 and Year 4. The Year 4's were lucky as a lady told them the wrong way so they didn't have to run the big lap. Congratulations to Loren, Maddy, Amelia, India, Patrick and Ben who all got top 3 places. Mrs Cooper is really pleased as GREEN house won - it is the first time since House points started that Green have won something so she wants to have another cross country next week :)
