In the morning we were able to touch lots of different Australian animals and after lunch we watched the farm show. We saw  a sheep being shorn and Hannah's mum was very good at whip cracking.

P.P. Year One Class

Our silkworms have been growing rapidly over the break and the children are waiting expectantly for them to spin their cocoons.The year ones are producing an amazing power point presentation on the silkworm's life cycle. Our veggie garden has also been growing well and the snow peas are very popular. There is also much anticipation about our excursion this term. We are off to Cicerellos to learn about sea life. We're also going to have fish and chips for lunch when we are there.Yum!

Welcome Back to Term 4

 

Aust animal year 1-2 2008 032.jpgWelcome back to school everyone.  We hope you all had a great holiday and are well rested and ready for the final busy term for 2008. At the end of last term, the Year 1/2 class worked very hard gathering facts and data from informational texts, internet sites and other sources to produce a written project, as well as a diorama of a native Australian animal, in its natural habitat.  These dioramas are now displayed in the school Library and Office for those who would like to see them.

PP / Year One Cooking

Last week we were able to pick our first plants from our vegetable garden. We tried some Italian parsley and some snow peas and we cut some lettuce leaves to make cheese and lettuce sandwiches. We had them for afternoon tea in the garden. Nearly everyone loved them.

I enjoyed my time in Queensland and am looking forward to seeing the children again. The photo was taken at their assembly on the last day of Term 3. I have watched the video and think they all did a great job and so obviously enjoyed themselves.
