OPTIMIST FUN

We had a wonderful afternoon at Pandora Pond. We learnt so much ....

• How to rig and work all the parts of an optimist yacht.
• How to launch an optimist yacht.
• How to sail into the wind, with the wind.
• How to communicate with a partner.
• How to race your optimist in a challenge.

We had a great time. Here are some photos of our Optimist Adventure!

Reading with our Buddy Class

Reading with our buddy class

Today we had a lovely time working alongside our buddies from Room 18. Room 2 students acted as awesome teachers, encouraging and supporting younger students as they read to them. Room 2 students discussed the text and helped students to work through word problems as they occurred. It was lovely to see the nurturing side of so many students. Well done Room 2!

Electricity in the World Around Us

   Electricity in the World Around Us

We have started our new inquiry - Electricity in the World Around Us. To get us thinking we have taken part in a range of hands on activities in the classroom, visited the Faraday Centre and had a visit from Unison Energy.

Here is a photo slideshow to show us in action.
