More Big Buddy Time

Today we joined with our big buddies to practice our strike and throw. It was great having the big buddies and Mr Hunter showing us the right technique. Some of us were surprisingly good. Was it easy for you?

Athletics Champions

Riley D, Riley A and Gabby were the athletics champions in Room 9. They got the top scores when we added up their cards. Well done champions.

Thumper came to meet Room 9

On Thursday I brought my bunny named Thumper. He likes to bite people and scratch and kick. I got him for my birthday. We have another bunny that looks like a field rabbit and 1 guinea pig. My grandma gave him to me. I love him very much. My cousin Emit has a dog that is the same size as my bunny.

Splendid Spring Art

Today we had another session in the Workshop preparing our Flower Show art. We began by sketching daffodils making sure we looked very carefully at the flowers. We then used different shades of green and yellow. Finally we used blue and purple dye. Come to the Flower Show to see them. They look great.

Spring is here

The sun is shining brightly and it is getting hotter. Sniff, sniff the best daffodil smell.

The Outram School Art Show

The Outram School Sketching Club has staged an art exhibition in the school hall. It is terrific. Gene showed us one of his sketches and Joel chose his favourite picture. Don't forget to come and see these brilliant, original art works.

Cross Country Champions

Here comes Gabby the first Year 2 girl to finish the race. You are a champion Gabby!

Go Riley go! Racing to finish first in the Year 2 boys race, Riley is the winner. Great running Riley! The whole school took part in the cross country races today. It was hard work.

What a busy lunchtime

There is always plenty to do at lunchtime. Joel, George and Mason made rockets in the Allen Centre while Annalise, Emma and Erin practiced netball on the courts. Riley A, Willow and Erin practiced with the kapa haka group in the hall while Trampus, Trent, Ben, George and Jacob made bird treats with Mrs Meehan in the Workshop. What a great school we have!

From Trash to Treasure

What could you make out of a plastic bottle? Look at these treasures! Ella-Rose made a vase and a funnel. Gabby and Riley made plant holders and Tyla made a buzzing bee. This week our challenge is to turn egg cartons into treasure.
