What is Google Applications?

On Wednesday Mrs Campbell introduced us to Google Applications. We had lots of fun sending each other documents and chatting. We were told this is very safe and can only chat and communicate with people within our school. Once we become more familiar with its use we will be using this tool to share ideas and collaborate with each other during class. Mrs Prichard is excited about being able to put a task up and sharing it with a reading group and then off we go. We are very much looking forward to having some more laptops so that we do not have to go to Room 5 to work on computers.

Lots of practice


Since the beginning of the term we have been training for our cross country which is on Thursday next week. At the beginning of the term some of us were struggling to do one lap without stopping, not any more. Don't we look good?

Learning origami


On Friday we were lucky enough to have Sheena's Mum, Ikumi come and teach us how to do origami. The first thing we learnt was the Ninja Star. We thoroughly enjoyed throwing these about the playground at lunchtime. The next thing was the balloon. Hopefully we will learn some more things next time Ikumi comes.

It's cool to keep safe



What a great session we had today,learning all about keeping safe. We know how to keep safe on a motorbike. Today we learnt that it is ok to tell adults about things that make us feel uncomfortable.
What is so vauluable in the box? Me, I am very valuable and need to keep myself safe.

What are we doing?


We spent time outside collecting bark and leaves. Once back in the classroom we did some rubbings. Mrs Prichard said that we were going to make a tree, but how?
