Harold the Giraffe

Wow! Today we got to go into the Life Education Trust Trailer and meet Harold the Giraffe and Tam. We talked about how to be safe on the playground. There are lots of things we can do, like:
- not running
- taking turns
- wearing helmets on our bikes
- having our parents or an older person watch us
- look after each other! 


Room B had lots of fun showing different feelings on our faces. Some people were very good at angry faces and others were good at happy faces. It is ok to feel sad and angry, just like it is ok to feel happy :). 

We also met Tam. She taught us about parts of our bodies. We know where our wind pipes are now and where our hearts and tummies are! 



Here we are using our faces to show different feelings. 



This is Tyler and Tam. 


Lego creations!

We have been reading all about The Three Billy Goats Gruff. Miss de Burgh decided that it would be cool to build bridges for the Billy Goats to use to get away from the troll. We had to think very carefully about how to build the bridge and what pieces of lego we should use. 
















Special Visitors

Room B had some special visitors today ... four lambs! Brooke brought them in for her class talk. We learnt that they need to be fed two or three times a day and that they are about 6 weeks old. The lambs drink milk from a bottle. Brooke and Crystal brought in two sets of twin lambs. They were very thirsty and drunk their milk very quickly! 











Spanish Dancers!

Look at the costumes these lovely learners brought to school today. Their Grandparents brought them back from Spain. They are traditional costumes used for dancing!
