There is going to be glow sticks.

Disco balls are shimmery.

We need money.

Let’s boogie on down kids.

Disco’s are awesome.

More lost teeth


Wow - I can't believe how many children have lost teeth this week - and there are still some very wiggly teeth to come out! I wonder if this is happening in any other classes at our school?

Great shapes



During maths choosing both the Olivia's made some interesting shapes - have a look.

Autumn fun with room 16






On Friday the children and Mrs Simmons went on an autumn walk around the school. We decided to have a biggest leaf pile competition. Paddy was the judge. The children worked like beavers collecting the leaves. Room 16 won the competition as they had the biggest pile. Room 15's pile had the best shape. We all had a great time.


Olivia the scientist


Olivia was inspired by our oobleck science experiment. She made her own experiment by adding water, dishwashing liquid, sugar and food colouring. Her advice was to wash food colouring off your hands quickly as it stains!

Oobleck reconstituted



When we looked at our oobleck this morning it had turned into a solid. We discussed how to make it into a liquid again and Jarrelle suggested that we add some hot water. It did turn into a liquid again and then it seemed to be a solid too - how strange...


Could this be a record?


Today Jamie lost another tooth and Ethan lost a top tooth!
