Snakes Alive!

Today at Discovery Time our Room 15 snake expert Ben helped Mrs Simmons to show children how to make spinning snakes. Thanks for your help Ben!

Meet Sophie the Frog

Sophie is now one year old. She has lived in Room 3 and is now in Room 15. Sometimes Mrs Simmons takes her home for the weekend. We also have a frog roster and some children get to take her home for weekends too. Sophie eats live flies. Would you like to look after Sophie?

Pigs, pigs and more pigs!

We have been painting and drawing pigs in class. Come into class and have a look at our great work.

A Spinning Snake

Yesterday at school Ben's reading group read a book by Jane Buxton called 'A Spinning Snake'. At home Ben made this great snake. Would you like to make a snake like this at discovery time on Friday?

Welcome to class!

What a busy day we have had at school today. We talked about how we felt about our first day at school (using the red hat) and here are some of the responses:

I felt - excited, brilliant, sad, happy, nervous, cranky, jealous.

Why - because I am back at school, I like school, I like to have fun with my friends, I like to learn, I love Mrs Simmons, I miss Mum, I like the frog, I like to play on the monkey bars, I miss my sister, I got woken up by Mum, We have a pet frog, I like my new class, I like my new teacher, I get to see my friends, I can make some friends, I like school it is awesome, I feel scared and nervous, I had a good holiday.

Let's have another great day tomorrow.

Welcome to our 2011 bolg

Hi everyone. I hope you have all had a relaxing holiday. I am looking forward to seeing you all in the morning. From Mrs Simmons

Christmas in Room 3

Christmas has come early to Room 3. Mrs Simmons's Mum made us a beautiful quilt. We will display Christmas work around the quilt. We have written letters to Father Christmas and are eagerly awaiting his reply. You are welcome to look in your child's writing book to read a draft copy of their letter. Ashley's family have kindly loaned us a wonderful Christmas tree and have donated Christmas decorations to us - thanks very much!
