Sunflower Seeds

We are learning about plants this term. Thanks to Kings Seeds we have planted sunflower seeds. In seven days they have sprouted and now we wait! We wait to see which will grow the tallest.

Armistice Day Poems

The peaceful cemetery
                      Peace and rest
                      Scary things that happened
                      Brave men have sacrifice
                      There lives. People risking things
                      That is very difficult for them.
                      Worried man that are thinking
                      About there families.
                      By Benjamin.
The nameless headstones
Peace and rest
Worried  soldiers
Fire arms strong and mighty
Nameless headstones
Love and  passion
Risked their lives
Now in peace
Graves with no decorations
Just headstones

Thanks Cannons Creek Library

We enjoyed visiting the Cannons Creek Library. Gina told us how the library works and read us some great stories.

Peach Boy Books

We made our own picture books and shared them with Room 3.

They were excellent listeners.

Experience Japan!

 
We had a fun afternoon on Friday. It was our chance to experience Japanese culture.
It was good to cross group with other classes and go try the different aspects of Japanese culture.
We liked making carp fish kites, eating with chop sticks and learning to speak Japanese. Not too sure about the taste of seaweed though.

You can go to North City Plaza and see our display as Russell School is a part of ‘Team Japan’ during the Rugby World Cup.

Thanks Robbie for telling us about Japan!

Robbie shows his chopstick skills.
