Our Class Rules


In Room 11 we had a talk about some pictures that Ms Sholson had.  We shared our ideas in pairs and Ms Sholson wrote all our ideas down on Post-It notes.  We decided what the pictures would look like in Room 11 and Ms Sholson typed up all our ideas.  Now when we come to school we look at the wall to remind us of our responsibilities to ourselves, others and our environment.

Welcome to 2014 with Room 11!

!

Hi Everyone,

We have had a busy start to the year, setting up our class rules and learning about our Pride values.  We all agree that our favourite places are the swimming pool and the playground!
We have explored the school grounds and know all the 'out of bounds' places.  We were intrigued by the new bio-cycle area and its purpose!

We are looking forward to an exciting year and we know we are going to learn heaps!  Keep watching this space so that you can keep up with all our adventures.

Lots of Love

Room 9 Makes a Friendship Cake

























We had been feeding Herman our friendship cake in Room 9.  Mrs Borrie had given it to us to look after it and we had been feeding it.  Then Mrs Borrie came in and we baked the Friendship Cake.  It was delicious!  Now some children in the class have taken away their own Herman cakes to bake and pass on.  We had a great time.

Room 9 Makes Butter

 Room 9 has been looking at how food gets from the field to the table.  We looked at how to make butter.  We couldn't bring a cow into the classroom, so we just had to start with a bottle of cream. 








We put the cream in the shaker and passed it around and around and around, giving it a shake each time we got it.









Ms Sholson took the lid off to check it but it just looked like thick cream.







 But, at last we started to notice some changes!












Finally we had butter!  Ms Sholson drained the buttermilk off.  Then she spread the bread with the butter.







It tasted really good!

Lachlan took his kid to visit Ms Nobari.
Hanna practised leading her goat around the school.

Hayley finished her cardboard loom weaving so that we could display it on Agriculture Day.
