On Tuesday afternoon Ria's mum came in to talk to us about Diwali and make some rangoli patterns using coloured rice and rice flour. We had a lot of fun making our wonderful patterns.

On Wednesday we have some coaches come to school to teach us some simple soccer skills through fun games. It was a great way to burn off some energy on a Wednesday afternoon and learn some kicking and passing moves!
The first week back was a Chinese language week. Children with a Chinese heritage were given the opportunity to wear some clothing to school that reflected their culture. Claire and Ivy arrived at school today in their beautiful clothes.
