Making our Poppy garland.

How many poppies did we make ?

How long is our garland?



 Of course, we couldn't have Anzac Day without making and eating Anzac Biscuits.


Why can't  we bake everyday?

This is fun!!!


 Yes, our teacher insisted that we wash our hands first!

The last day of Term.


What better way to end the term..... than popcorn and movies!!!



A visit from an Author.


Zee Southcombe  came to our school to talk to us about writing. We learnt, that we too are like authors, when we write our stories everyday.

Thank you Zee for your valuable visit.
