The Little Orange Tractor

We are very lucky to be getting a cycle track put in around the outside of the playground.  It has provided the children with motivation for their writing and drawing as big trucks come into the playground and dump the track surface material and little tractors dig out the pathway.  It is all very exciting to see how things are made and what will happen next.  Hamza and Adrianna have written their blogs about the happening in the playground this week.

Saying Thank You To Our Helpers

We were very fortunate to have parent and support staff helpers on our zoo trip.  The children are learning how important it is to say "thank you" to people who help us .  All the children made cards. Hamza and Jeyda made cards to give to Mrs Forbes.

Jeyda made a lovely card with pictures of the cheetah.

Disco Dancing

It was too wet to hold our Olympic Fun Day so a lunchtime disco was held.  Room 16 all went along to the hall and showed off their best dance moves.

Practising on the Pavement

Hamza and Khyani have been busy practising their letters on the pavement outside our classroom.
