Max the Monkey

In Room 3 we have a special friend called Max.  He is a monkey and he goes home with one person every day for an adventure.  He has a special golden writing book that we write about our adventures in.  Yesterday we decided that Max was looking a bit grubby, so today we gave him a bath. 

WE LOVE TO SWIM!!

WOW!!  What a hot week it has been.  Room 3 love going to visit the school pool and cool off in the afternoons.  We are beginning to practice for our junior swimming sports which will be happening in Week 5.  This is what the some of the children in Room 3 have to say about swimming:
"I like doing handstands in the water,"  said Luciano
"I like running in the swimming pool," said Jaden.
"I like doing handstands too," said Prisha.
"I like blowing bubbles in the water," said Malachai
"I like going in the pool because it cools me down," said Lily.
"I like putting my whole body under the water," said Daniel.
"I like doing mermaid swimming," said Johan.
"Swimming is fun," said Prachi.

5+ A Day

Today Room 3 and 9 presented assembly to the whole school.  Our theme was 5+ A Day.  The two classes were outstanding.  Have a look at the song Little Green Pea that we sang and check out the amazing solo act!!!

A Visitor in Room 3!!

On Monday we came to school and found a special visitor sleeping on our classroom couch.  His name is Puff and he comes from the planet Marshmellowa.  He was exploring the universe when his space rocket ran out of fuel and crash landed at our school.  We are learning about Puff, his dog Musha, his home planet and his family.  He showed us a picture of his Dad and told us all about him.  Then we told him all about our Dads.  Look at some of the stories that we wrote.

At the Stardome

Last week the junior school went to the Stardome to start learning about the sun and moon.  While we were there some children helped the teacher to show us how the earth and moon move around the sun.
