Term 3 Week 9

Last week Mrs Hutton's friend came to share her knowledge about bees. We visited Room 3 and learnt all about Bees and now know some interesting facts. Look out for our stories about bees in future posts.

Term 3 Week 8

Our Calendar Art

We made some amazing caterpillars for our calendar art. Mrs Hanson thinks they are very cute and will look great on a calendar, diary or some cards that our parents can order from the school office. We are all very proud of our work.

First we made our own patterned paper using paint and choose the colours we wanted to use. We then cut out all the shapes to create our caterpillars. In coming weeks we will also be creating butterflies in the same way.

Be sure to get your orders in soon so you don't miss out. You can view our art at the office.

Term 3 Week 7

Stepping Out 

In the past few weeks we have been learning about road safety and how to be safe around traffic. Constable Harwood took us for a walk in our community and we learnt how to cross the road safely and  what to check for when walking around roads and in carparks.

Term 3 Week 6

PE Time

We were lucky enough to learn some beginning skills for tennis. We were learning to balance a ball, hit the ball and control the ball using our hands and then racket.

Term 3 Week 4

Our Really Cool Owls!

We made some colourful owls one wet afternoon. We used coloured paper to create then and we are all very proud of our owls and how different they are.

Term 3, Week 3

Maths with Mrs Barlow

This week Mrs Barlow did a lesson with us about statistics and the different types of graphs we can use to represent data.

Term 3, Week 2

Our Amazing Witches!

Mrs Hanson read us a story about a friendly witch who could not cast bad spells. The book was called 'The Witch with an Itch' by Helen Baugh and Deborah Allwright. We then listened to the story of Bad Jelly the Witch.  We decided which witch we would create. Mrs Hanson showed us how to make paper mache noses.

Term 3, Week 1

Welcome back to Term 3!

Over the next two weeks we are lucky enough to have the Life Education caravan visiting our school. We have two special lessons in the caravan with Corrine and Harold the giraffe.

The Year 2 children are learning about being sensitive and respectful towards others, understanding what empathy is and learning about how our actions affect others. We are also learning about the qualities that make a good leader and about being reliable and committed to activities or groups we join.
