Masks


We have been following the Olympics and adding up our medals. This has been pretty easy for us to do this week! 
Annie's aunty, Chloe who is an ex Marshland school pupil is competing in the shooting tomorrow and can be viewed at 5.55 Saturday morning. Go Chloe!!
This afternoon we have made Brazilian masks with glitter, sequins, gems and feathers after watching a video clip of a Brazilian carnival. The children loved all the colours that were used.




Elephant is Stuck!


Today we had such fun making Elephant masks after reading this week's shared book 'Elephant is Stuck' Don't you think we did a great job? We pressed really hard with our crayons to make them shout.

Laptops!!!


It is such a delight seeing the imagination and creativity of our children. Tahlia shared the laptop she made with us and this inspired Stella and Sam to make their own laptops too. Kai pai, we love them!!!

We loved having Ann Harding from the Shirley Public Library come into our hub to read us some very cool stories. We look forward to her introducing us to some more new books next term.
