Brushing our teeth

Star Writer!

Doreen was lucky to go to the Principal's office and read her amazing story to Mr Vasau! Her story was a recount about the book 'We're going on a bear hunt'.

Anzac Day ceremony

Today Rowandale School had a Anzac ceremony to remember all the fallen soliders from World War 2. Each class made a remembrance wreath and placed it in front of a cross. 

We will remember them. 

Anzac medals

Mrs Priestley brought in the medals her grandfather got from the war. They are very special and we got to look and touch them. 

Tomus and his maths

Today Tomus was practicing ordering his numbers in tens. He worked hard to figure out which one came first, and then counted in tens up to 90! Great work Tomus on making the snake. 

Gingerbread men!

This week The Responsible Rhinos have been reading the story of the gingerbread man! We have been working on retelling the story, describing the character and then we made gingerbread men! 

It was so much fun baking them. We had to work hard to follow a receipe. Tomorrow we will decorate them with eyes and buttons. 

Discovery Week 6

Today we were looking at working with others. We were able to dress up and play together and create fun games. The children in room 2 were able to use lots of different costumes and work together to help dress each other. It was so much fun!

Assembly 12/3

We had our assembly today with The Creative Caterpillars! 

We did a dance to two songs - Funky Town and Gangnam Style. It was so much fun! We got to make funny masks to wear in our dance, which made everyone laugh!

Have a look at some pictures and our video!

Planting with The Determined Dinosaurs

Today, The Responsible Rhinos and The Determined Dinosaurs went to visit the garden. We took along some plants and seeds to plant in the garden.

Mrs Priestley brought a blueberry, lettuce, basil and cabbage plant. Miss Sharman brought some carrot, parsley, parsnip and beetroot seeds. 

First we needed to dig some holes for the plants and seeds. Next we covered them with the soil and gave them some water. Hopefully they will grow into big plants so that we can eat and use the food for our lunch. 

Our beach Art

Today we were making Art using glue and sand. We chose an animal from the beach and drew it on our piece of paper. Next we covered our pencil with the glue. Last we put sand all over our paper and shaked it off to only leave sand on the glue. Once they are dry we will dye the background different colours. 

Beach scape Art

Today we have been making the beach using sand, shells and paint. 

First we painted the plate for the background. The background needed to be blue or green. Next we cut a hole in another plate and painted that any colour.
Next we drew some fishes and sharks for our beach scape and glued them onto our background with shells and sand. Last we glued on some plastic onto the plate that we cut to stop the sand and shells from falling out. Madeline and Mrs Priestley stapled the plates together. 

They look great! Check them out!
