CRAZY SWIMMING STROKES

Room 4 had a little bit of fun being creative in the water. Everyone made their own crazy swimming stroke. Take a look at these Room 4 crazy fish.

BIKE DAY 1

Today we had our first bike safety session. We learnt many things including how to put on and check our helmets, road rules and tips to help make our bike rides as smooth and safe as possible. We will be extending our learning on Thursday when we take a ride in our community with an expert visitor.

We also did a class triathlon today. This was challenging but a lot of fun. The course was biking three laps of the field, swim five lengths of the pool then run two laps of the field. Everyone can be proud of their achievements!

BEGINNING OF YEAR CAMP

This week Room 4 camped out at school. It was lots of fun and everyone enjoyed spending time interacting and getting to know each other. Lots of new friendships were formed and all the children developed their self managing skills.
What a great opportunity and experience so early in the year.
Thank you to all those who made our camp possible.

What a fantastic medicine at camp

I couldn’t help myself running to the staffroom! All that my mind was thinking about was the hot milo sitting on the table calling my name. As soon as I walked into the staffroom, I quickly grabbed the biggest and the fullest drink, I could feel myself starting to warm up… My body first, then my hands. It was steaming and boiling! When it touched my lips it burnt them it was super sugary and tasty. So I drank it really fast. Then it slowly started to drip down my throat into my tummy “Yum!” I thought.

Famous People On Camp

As Miss Campbell pressed the name against my back, I had already started wondering who I could be, Demi, Miss Campbell, Mickey Mouse? I peered over at Georgia’s back, she was Bart Simpson!

The guessing began! Blah, blah, blah was all you could here! At the end of it I still didn’t know who I was. All the people that didn’t know who they were had to stand up the front. The class helped them figure it out. I was Roald Dahl! I hope we can play that again!
