My word it looks like the children have grown up soooo much over the holidays - it is scary how much they look like Year 3's already. They have had a super fun start with Miss Rowe taking them for Singing and Drama on Monday - I was very impressed with how focused they were and the amount of effort they all put in - well done Wise Owls!

Kitty Softpaws Present - Animal Band

Today both Room 5 and Katrina were Wowed by Kitty Softpaws and they presented their play. They have been learning to make sure they change quickly from one speaker to the next - what a fantastic job they did! Well done to all of you :)

Sitara Had A Little Lamb Little Lamb...

Wow we were ecstatic today when we had a visit from Sitata's lamb Eddie. He was sooooo cute.

The children loved patting him and feeling how soft he was! Sitara showed us how she feeds Eddie with special milk.

Next week we are going to write the instructions out so we can teach others how to feed lambs without Mum's.



Poetry!!

Check out the finalists for the poetry recital that happen last week in assembly. It was very hard for Mrs Hayes to choose the winners!



A big THANK YOU to Ms D in Room 4 for putting it together for us :)

Cricket!

Wow we had soooo much fun today learning about cricket. We now know that there are three things that you need to do when you play cricket: Bat, Bowl and Field. Check out this pictures of us practicing with Logan and Libby from Canterbury Cricket.

Kiara sent down the field.


Zack gave it his all.


Sienna ran as fast as she could and Jorja fielded like a mad thing! :)


We all had fun! :)

The Wise Owl's Thinker's Hat!!

We have a new member in the class... The Thinkers Hat. It has special powers to help people with their thinking. The Thinker's Hat also likes to reward those who have been showing that they are expert thinkers. Here is a photo of Sitara demonstrating its awesome powers! :)



TomTom's Musical Adventure

Wow the Court Theater Company are amazing! We loved watching them preform in the hall and learning all about the different sections of the orchestra. :)


TomTom was very naughty because he was playing the drums too loudly.

TomTom's Mum was grumpy because she was trying to put his little brother to sleep.


The first place TomTom and the Fairy Conductor went was the brass land.

There they met...

They ended up in the string section!

And met....




We all had a great time! :)
