Wow time sure does fly when you’re having fun!


We have had a great time and have been very busy doing lots of fun things.

We participated in a Fire Wise unit where we learnt what to do in a fire. We discussed with our families where a suitable meeting place would be encase there was ever a fire at our home. We made sure this Safe Meeting place was well away from any dangers and made sure our whole family new where to go. We also learnt to Get Down, Get Low and Get Out, fire spreads VERY quickly and smoke raises. At the end of our unit the local fire men brought their truck down for us all to look at. We even got to hop inside at look at all of their special equipment and hoses.

Friday 20th August was Pyjama Day. We all came to school in our pyjamas, which felt really strange! We were raising money for an Orphanage in Cambodia. It was a lot of fun. Some children also took part in a Food For Thought challenge. These children ate food that the children would in the Orphanage. This mainly consisted of Rice, Egg and some Fruit and Veggies. The children were very hungry and couldn’t imagine eating like that everyday!

We are currently investigating Changing States of Matter. We are exploring how things change when they are heated and cooled and have been classifying Solids, Liquids and Gases. We even made Jelly! We watched the crystals (Solid) change into a liquid when we added boiling water, then it changed back into a solid when we cooled in down in the fridge. IT WAS YUM TO EAT!!!
