Garden Club


Spring is a busy time in the garden and it was certainly a busy time for the Garden Club today. What a good thing Rylan was there to show these boys how to spread the compost. We couldn't believe how many worms there were in the soil.

Arabic writing




Today Mrs Stedman showed us how to do arabic writing. What a beautiful alphabet!  Now it is our turn to have a go! We will use special pens.

What fun we had!






Today Zabonga visited Outram School and shared one brilliant story after another. Many children and several teachers were called upon to help with the story telling. Each of the patches on his quilt was a story and we heard four. We all wished we could have stayed there all day!

Let's unpack a daffodil



Last week we gently pulled a daffodil apart. Today we took a slice out of the seed box and used the dinolite to examine it carefully. Look what we found.

Making a Zen garden





What a wonderful time the children have at Japanese Club. Today the children decorated the boxes and made the tools before creating a wonderful garden. Fynn enjoyed sharing his garden with Room 9 when he returned.

Sounds good Guitar Club


Today we held Guitar Club in the Workshop because it was a wet day. Our chord changes are getting faster and faster. Well done everyone.

Look what happened today!





We have been sending emails to our Swiss penpal Madeleine. Today we did a photo study of winter conditions in Switzerland. Today in the middle of our study we looked outside and saw thick snow falling and when Belinda came in she was covered in snow. That was good timing wasn't it!
