Willow Pattern

Recently P7 has been learning about the willow tree pattern for their China topic. The willow tree pattern is about a girl called Koong-Shee that falls in love with a man called Chang. Her father locks her in a maze as her and Chang were passing notes to each other in coconuts talking about getting married. At the wedding night they agree to run away together to become farmers. In the end of the story they die in each others arms and are transformed into love birds .

P6 Renewable Energy

We are learning about renewable energy and what types there are. Here are a few examples: wind, solar and hydro. Hydro energy uses water wheels to make electricity, wind energy uses wind turbines and solar energy uses solar panels.

There are some energy sources that are non-renewable such as oil and coal.

P5 on the field!

On Thursday P5 we went on the field to do sport on it then after we played games. We were in teams of 5. We ran around the field with a baton and we passed it on to the next person. It was called a relay. It was hard because we were trying to be fast.2014-relay-race-handing-over-natural-Kopie

The Story of the Little Gentleman

Yesterday morning, P1-3 watched a performance of the show, The Story of the Little Gentleman. The little gentleman was sad and lonely, and he wanted to find a friend. One day, a curious dog turned up and wanted to play.  All the boys and  girls thoroughly enjoyed watching the play.

Cole- My favourite bit was the funny way the dog ate.

Jamie- I loved all of it because it was really funny and it also made me think of friendship.

Paige- The acting was really good.

Sean Lee- I liked the start when things popped out of different parts of the box.

P3a Magnetism

P3 have been learning about magnetism, this week. We have found it fascinating! We found lots of magnetic objects in our classroom. Some of us even found some magnets at home, and brought them in to show the rest of the class. We made magnetic race tracks using a paper plate, a paper clip and a magnet, and we were very pleased with our results! We also made feathery bird magnets. Next week, we’ll be learning even more about how magnetism works!
