Banana Phone
Listen to this funny song about a banana phone. We think it is funny because we read a book about a monkey on a banana phone.

Playground Treat
In Room B we have all been wokring together to fill up our marble jar and get a treat! We have been really following our school rainbow and working together to get marbles in our jar. So last week we had 15 minutes free play on the junior playground! It was so fun exploring on there with nobody else around!

Enviro Day!
Here are some of our stories about our fabulous Enviro Day....
Last Friday MSS had Enviro Day!! First we went to see the birds and we had a picture with them. Then we looked around the place. The next thing we did was go to the field and we planted a tree with Room A. Both classrooms planted a tree. We planted a native tree and it was an evergreen tree. Then it was morning tea time. When it was over we had our milk and we had a treasure hunt and my buddy was Libby. We had to find stuff in our garden but me and Libby did not finish the sheet. In the afternoon we made sandwiches and I had ham, cheese, cucumber and lettuce. Then we did some art. We made some trees for our pledges to go on and then school was over. I went home. I had the best day ever!

Last Friday it was a big day for MSS because it was Enviro Day. First we went to the new bird aviary and we saw geckos too. Then we picked up leaves and rubbish. My favourite part of the day was planting a tree on the field. It was so so fun because I got to help plant the tree. I love Enviro Day the best!

Teddy Bear's Picnic
All of our Teddy Bear's came to school on Friday for a picnic. We had a lovely time sharing them with the class and then eating our lunch all together.
Fractions with Fairy Bread
We are learning about fractions at maths time at the moment. We know all about halves and quarters! When you cut something in half there are two parts and when you cut something in quarters there are four parts. We all thought fairy bread was a great way to learn about halves and quarters!

Thanks for making such an awesome effort with litterless lunches Room B!We have had a talk with Mrs Cowan and we know that a litterless lunch can have one piece of rubbish and a yoghurt pot. We just need to rememeber to take yoghurt pots home to wash and recycle them.
Keep up the great work Enviro Learners!!

Our Special Toys
Have a read of these great stories we have written about our special toys...
My favourite special teddy’s name is Chihuahua. He is orange and cute. He makes a sound, “arrw, arrw.” He has a circle for his tummy and his head is an oval. He has a little ma ears. He has little arms and little legs. He is soft and cuddly. He catches my bad dreams and that’s why he is my favourite teddy. I love him and I sleep with him. - Cate
My teddy is Koala Cat. He is grey and his nose is black. I play with him and with my other teddies. I love my Koala because he is cute and he has a baby koala. - Jamie
My teddy is called Blue Dog. He has got a friend and his friend is Sparky. Blue Dog hangs out on my bed. I love him. I have had him since I was a baby. - Kaea
My teddy bears name is Brown Cat. He is furry. He is soft too. I like him because he can talk and he can walk too. He can run too. I have had him since I was a baby. - Cairo
My bear is called Goldy because he is gold with a gold ribbon and he is furry too. I sometimes sleep with him and sometimes he sits on my book shelf at the top. I have had him for six years and I love him. - Kayden

We are an Enviro School and we are always trying to think of ways to help the earth. An easy thing that we can do each day is to reduce the rubbsish in our lunch box. Well done to those people who are bringing litterless lunches to school!

Special Reader
Room B was very lucky to have a guest reader come in on Friday afternoon. Ian McKelvie came to read us a special book. We got to ask him a few questions about being Mayor and working with the Prime Minister. He told us that he loves to read in the car.
Book Swap
On Friday we all got to bring an old book from home, that we had read lots of times, to swap with someone elses old book. It was a great way for us to have something new to read. We were all so happy with the 'new' books we got to take home!
Thanks everyone for bringing books to swap.
We are firewise!
Fireman David and Fireman Kevin came to visit us on Wednesday. They wanted to hear all about our Firewise learning. They were both very pleased with all the learning that we had done!
We got to ppractice what we would do in a fire by getting low and crawling under the smoke, we had to shout "fire, fire, fire!"
We all know to ...
Get down, get low and get out FAST!!
