Hi Class!
Hi Children and Families. I hope you are all safe and well. I went into school yesterday and picked up Sophie the Frog. She is happy at home with us and Isabel and Maddie are busy catching her flies. This is the long drop toilet that Chris has dug for us - we think it's pretty flash. Stay safe love from Mrs Simmons

School is closed until further notice
Well done to all the awesome children from Room 15 who looked after each other during the earthquake yesterday. It was a very scary time for us all. Thank you to all the wonderful parents who helped keep the children calm and entertained. We are all safe at home. I will keep you posted about when school will reopen - remember we have to finish our great stories about what's under the trap door. Love and hugs, Mrs Simmons xoxo

Statistics fun
This week we have been learning about statistics. Mrs Simmons gave each group a large handful of beans and we put the jellybeans in colour groups, then we counted the colours and recoreded how many we had in each group using a tally chart. Ruby has a great idea to add up how many beans each group had to see how many we had in total - thanks Ruby what a great idea.
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.

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?
