Week 1

What a fantastic first week we have had! Everyone has settled in so well, we have learned our way around, made some new furniture, and met lots of new friends. Here are a few photos from our week, Liz didn't take many as we were so busy!

Kereama and Johnandrew enjoyed checking out the new toys. Kereama's favourite is the fire engine that opens up to reveal a mini city, and Johnandrew's favourite is the cash register.

Sophie-Marie gave the mini tramp a good bounce!

Kieran turned 7yrs old last week so we celebrated his birthday on Monday.

Johnandrew also had a birthday last week - turning 10! So we had a double celebration.

Lake showed us his tricks on the bars at morning tea time.
What a successful week we have had. We are all excited to see what the rest of the term will bring.

Our classroom has become a very popular place! Every day more and more students from the other classes at Ashgrove come to visit us on their break times. Today they came to visit while we were doing our topic work, so they joined in - colouring pictures of the planets for our wall. We love making new friends. Johnandrew made an amazing castle out of blocks yesterday. He asked me to take a picture of it to share with you all. Wow, it is so tall! And finally, we began making some cardboard box rocket ships in art this week.  First we have painted them all over, and next we are going to add some accessories to them, like engines and windows and other decorations. I can't wait to see how they look when they are finished. And finally - our Star of the Week this week was Lake! He received his certificate at the whole school assembly which happens every fortnight. We were so proud of him for walking up on stage by himself, shaking hands with Mrs Cha...

Well the weather has certainly not been kind to us lately! We have been spending a lot of time inside, but as soon as the rain stops we put on jackets and venture outside for some fresh air. While inside, one of our most popular activities recently has been the dominoes.  Some students enjoy building big long tracks and then knocking them down and watching them fall. Other students have been investigating building towers. We also watched a youtube clip of a massive dominoes display that happened in Melbourne in 2016 (and Liz was lucky enough to see in person!) - it took 15mins for them all to fall down! As I mentioned above, as soon as the rain stops we have been doing our best to get out of the classroom and enjoy the fresh air..... and the puddles! Today Savannah pulled up her trouser legs and sleeves, and then had a truly fabulous time splashing in puddles in the playground. It did mean a change of socks when she came back inside too though... And fi...
