December Fun.

This is what huhu bugs grow from.

We went to the Gardens on the 3rd December for two reasons.  Firstly we helped at the Gardens and did out duty by having a bush walk to find out about birds and insects, filling up bags with duck food and pulling out all the weeds by the tress.  Secondly we had a practice for our Proms in the Park which is on tonight.  We also saw a giant pine cone, played in the playground and had our lunch there.

We have been doing a lot of practice for our Proms in the Park.  We are very excited about it.  We can all wear something red or green for

Fun for everyone!

Christmas.  We've painted our saxophones and trumpets for our item.  Some of us are playing shakers and bells.  Our song is "Santa Claus is coming to Town".  We can have a picnic tea there before we sing.

The Learning Centre is going well.  They are putting joists and dwangs in so the floor will be there soon.  We go up the stairwell to see what they have done.  We can't see the mud anymore because they put black plastic on the ground.


On Friday we take home our reports and our Time to Shine books, so look out for them.
Next Wednesday is our last day.  There will be a bouncy castle and a tug of war competition.  There will be an Assembly on that day.

November Already!

Wow, time has gone very fast.  On Mr Edghill's last day here, Mrs Phillips showed us how to make sushi.  We had chicken and salmon sushi.  Most of us thought it was yummy.
It has been a bit noisy since the new Learning Centre has been started.  We have been looking at the work through the stairwell windows.  We have seen lots of trucks, cranes and diggers going past our windows.
Vansh has come back from a long holiday in India.  He had lots of fun.
Mrs Phillips has been away a lot this term and she has been missing us.  First Mr Phillips had an operation on his eye, then Mr Phillips' Dad died.  Mrs Phillips has also been going to the Sports days with the bigger children. 

Term 4 Has Begun.

It is term 4, a sunhat term.  We need to remember to have a sunhat in our desks every day.

We all had a great time in the holidays.  We went away, to birthdays, skiing, to the pool, to the movies, to Lazer Force, to Inflatable World, on train trips and to the Salt Water Pool.

Mr Edghill has been teaching us about Japan.  He has been there and he likes it.  Also some children from our school are there at the moment and we have seen their blog.  Last term we made tanuki masks with Mr Edghill.  We also made teru teru bozu, because they bring good weather.  Mr Edghill finishes at the end of next week.  We will miss him.

After he goes it will be Labour Weekend.  We get the Monday off to remind us about how long Mums and Dads and children used to have to work a long, long time ago.

Mrs Phillips said we will be learning about the Sun and how it affects us after Labour Weekend.

The new value of the term is Duty and we are starting to learn about it.

Sports Day was great fun! The sun shone and it was warm.
