Lucky for writing

On Tuesday 26th September 2017, Rooms 3 and 4 girls went to the sensory garden for writing. We were learning to write using our senses (hearing,  taste, feel, sight and smell). We wrote about the garden and what we could hear and see. All the girls wrote really good descriptions and here is one of them:

I can smell the lovely plants,  planted by lovely people.
I can see a nice wide area with long tall trees as well as a nice garden with all the intelligent kids and kind hearted teachers in it.
I can hear the sounds of a plane going somewhere. I can also hear the waves crashing against each other like enemies and the screams of happy laughter of the kids playing.
I can taste the food that I had eating at morning tea.
I can feel the little yellow jet boat that j was writing in.

NBC's Amazing Book Week

On Friday, we had a dress up as your favourite book character day. This was for our book week.
Throughout the week, we have been doing some fun things, such as D.E.A.R, the Scholastic book fair, we passed around a book that each class got to add something to, to make a school story! It was so silly, it talked about a doughnut filled with spiders! On Friday in Assembly, we stood up on stage to show off our costumes for book character day. Also the year 7/8 performed a play based off a short story about the Principal's New Clothes.
