Welcome back to school 2013!

I hope everyone has had a wonderful holiday. I am looking forward to seeing you again this week. I know we will have a lot of fun getting to know each other.
We will be swimming this week from Tuesday onwards, so please remember to bring your named Sunhats and Swimming gear to school.
Let's hope this amazing weather continues!

A super year!

Goodbye Room 5 2012

Thanks for a fabulous year. I know you will all have an amazing year in your new classes in 2013!
Have a wonderful Christmas and Summer holiday!

Let's Play Cricket!

On a sunny Friday afternoon Room 5 and Room 4 had the chance to practice some cricket skills. We had a lot of fun practicing bowling, batting and fielding. Here are some photos of us:

Ipads

Today we were lucky enough to have the chance to use the new school i-pads. We had a go using some Maths apps like 'Mathletics', 'Hungry Fish' and 'Pearl Diver'. We also had a go at 'Scribblenaut' where we have to solve problems using spelling to help us.

Halloween!

Today Room 5 shared a Halloween Jump Jam routine with the Juniors. Look at what a great job everyone did!

Calendar Art!

Room 5 have worked hard to create some fabulous friendly Wild Things for their calendars this year!
They are up on display on the classroom window, or check them out in the slideshow below. Remember all orders need to be to the office by September 21st.

Olympics, Olympics and more Olympics!

Room 5 have loved following the Olympic games in London this year. We have been writing, reading, talking and doing artwork all about the Olympics.

Here is our Olympic Cauldron:

Today we were very lucky to have a special guest come to visit us. A real Olympic athlete...Mr Bird!
We had many questions to ask him and really enjoyed listening to his stories about the 1988 Summer Olympics in Seoul.

Here are some photos of his bronze medal:

Room 5 and Room 6 loved listening to Mr Bird's Olympic stories:

 

Thank You Mr Bird!
