We all made gifts for our Mums and bear cards. The poems we wrote were very special and they went inside the cards. They were displayed in a wall hanging floral gift box. A special gift for all our Mum’s.

Room 8 children put on a neat puppet show for the parents, grandparents and preschool children. The puppets sang, danced twisted and turned. At the end, we had the story ‘I’m the King of the Mountain’, where the flea climbed into the cows ear. Everyone smiled, clapped and laughed. The children all want to take home their puppets and do their own puppet shows at home.

On Friday we travelled on the ‘Art Bus’ into the art gallery to see the Hairy Maclary Lynley Dodd exhibition. It was a neat experience for all the children. They even got to draw their own dog and use some art techiques.

What a busy class. We’ve had a terrific time making puppets. It was a good chance to be creative and use bits and pieces. We used the hot glue guns and added sticks to the puppets to make them move. The puppets are going to be for the puppet show that we perform for the parents. We’ve got songs like “Grumpy” and “Let’s See” and “Energy”. These songs really do get our puppets moving, dancing and singing.

What great fun. Everyone made a special sock and was able to create a puppet that ‘came alive’. The puppets looked really cute with different types of eyes, teeth and coloured hair. Dan the puppet man had clever tricks for helping us make the arms and noses. We were all proud of the results and can’t wait to do the puppet shows for the parents.

We have been delighted to have Dan the Puppet Man visit the junior classes and put on a puppet show called “Kiwi”. It was a road safety show and he was able to stay with the classes and teach child how to make sock puppets.

It was a great afternoon to show our parents and families how clever we are in the pool. We are great at floating , kicking and being safe in the water. Some of us are able to use some arm action in our swimming too.

We have all thoroughly enjoyed all our camp activities over two days and one night
Room 6, 7 and 8 children spent Thursday exploring Marshall’s Aniaml Park and especially liked seeing the huge eels. Lots of children spent time patting the guinea pigs as well as seeing all the other aniamls at the park.
One of the best things to do was go whizzing down on the flying fox. After lunch we walked through the bush and visited the beautiful waterfall.
At night we all had a family barbeque at school, followed by a short concert. The parents all got up and joined in the dances.
Everyone was keen to get to their tents for the sleepover. Some children slept in the classrooms. It rained a bit in the night, but everyone still woke up smiling.
After breakfast at school we were off to the Mount beach for sandcastle creations and then headed to the rock pools in search of sea creatures. After a yummy lunch it was time to soak in the hot pools before heading back to school.
It was pack up time and the chance to say our thankyous and goodbyes to all our friends and classmates. What a great lot of experiences.
Many thanks to all the parents who gave so much time and energy to making a very successful junior camp.

We like to use our imagination and be creative in our room. It is good to work with others and produce things we are proud of. Look at these photos of things we have made together.
