We finished our caterpillars!

In our last blog, we were telling you about the caterpillars we were making out of modelling clay. This week we managed to finish them and write about our work.  They are now on display outside our classroom. Just look at them... real art!

Highlight of the Year!

Last Thursday's trip to Tumble Jungle was probably the highlight of the year for the boys!  They had a wonderful time and enjoyed every minute of it. I think you will agree that the photos say it all. Have a look!

Turning our hand to pottery!

Last Friday, in our art lesson we had a first! Yes, our first experience with modelling clay.  It was so exciting.  We were each given a slab of clay and we had to sculpt out caterpillars with it.  They came out really good. They looked so life like apart from the colour.  But don't worry we will paint them next Tuesday so drop in next week and you will see the finished product!  We can't wait.

Stop, look and listen!

When we came back from the book fair a lovely lady called Ann came to visit us.  She talked about all the things we should and should not do when we are out walking on the road; never ever leave mom's or dad's side,  never play with toys on the footpath, and always 'stop, look and listen' when crossing the road.  We also learned about what we should do when travelling in the car; 'back seat, booster seat, safety belt and click'.  We played some games about these rules. From now on we are going to be so safe on the road!

Book Fair

Last Wednesday, we were at the book fair.  It was in Mr Barrett's room, so we would like to say a big thank you to him.  The room was filled with books.  We browsed through all the shelves, took down the books we liked and sat down to have a look at them.  We found books about dinosaurs, trains, pirates,  lego, animals,cooking,  and even magic!  We could have stayed there all day.  We had such fun!
