Tupaia's Rugby Recount

I got up on Sunday, "Yaaa, it's rugby rrrr rugby, YES!" 

I had to get up, and I did. Anyway, for breakfast I had Nutrigrain. Then I put my uniform on. I got my mouth guard on. Now it was rugby. We got there in time. Oh gosh I felt tired! 

Anyway we started with a SCRUM. The whistle went, I rushed to the goal, but I just got tackled. So that team got the ball. I went to him and I jumped and I got it. We scored a goal. Then we had another scrum. They got the ball...oh great! But the game wasn't over. "Your on" I said to the other team. I was the captain. I rushed to the goal and scored a try. We had 20 points and the other team only had 18 points. Now they got the ball. We scored another try. We had the most points. But then they caught up...but we scored another try. Our team was player of the day!

Emily's Recount

Yawn.  Sorry I've just got up.  Let me tell you what happened when I was asleep.  My sister turned 9!!!  I know it's quite hard to imagine when I'm only two years younger than her.  She turned 9 at 4 o'clock in the morning which is too early for my liking.  But I accidently forgot to make her a card for her birthday.  She got a blue iPod, a blue ice skating dress, a pretty head band and a designing book.  I know you can tell she loves blue.  Now let me tell you something also about her birthday.  Well there isn't much more to tell you because it's Monday which is a school day.  Hmmm, oh I forgot to tell you something.  She is going to take lollipops to school and she's going to save one for me (one hour later).  Bring, bring on the school bell.

'My Sister's Birthday' - A Recount by Emily

On Saturday it was an exciting day because...it
was my sisters birthday!!! I was planning to give her breakfast in bed but she got up early and watched T.V. So I got up and watched T.V too. We watched 'Shaun the Sheep'. We got dressed and started getting ready for the party. The day felt like a year. Finally we went to the bead shop. We made a necklace and a bracelet then we went home and played musical statues and musical cushions. Then we made pizza. I felt exhausted because we stayed up for ages. 

'My Dragon' By Griffin

In the holidays I went to a castle with my pet dragon. His name is Thunder. He likes to eat bones. He looks like a dinosaur. His colour is red and he has spike son his back. He can fly very fast. He can shoot a fireball.

Room 1has been having fun with music! They have been learning how to keep a steady beat and clap a rhythm. They have also been creating their own 'Fireworks' composition writing down symbols to show different sounds and then performing them for each other. Room 1 has fantastic musical imaginations and have created some great sounds!

Griffin's Writing

When it's no more school I'm going to Australia to go to Seaworld with my mum and dad and my sister Sophie.

What a cool illustration to show the Solar System. Room 1 has been learning about the Sun's relationship to the Earth. You can see here, that the Sun is the centre of our Solar System and the planets orbit around the Sun. 

Stardome Observatory Trip

Room's 1 and 2 visited the Stardome Observatory to start our learning about Space. We loved watching the movie about two children who flew to outer space in their imaginations. We learnt some really interesting facts about the Sun, Earth and the planets in our Solar System. But best of all we can't wait to do some more learning about Space back in our classroom.
