Yummy Food

This week we are learning to cook. We are making lots of different kinds of food, like fruit kebabs, rice, and soup.
It is going to be yummy. Do you want some too?
We love food, and we have a question about food. How does food get made?
Do you have a recipe for us?

Nayland College Sports

On some Wednesdays, Nayland College comes to our school to teach us all types of sport. My group has Jayden, Nia, Siao-Wei, Liam J and some more people. We were playing soccer. First we collected our name tags and we played a name game to learn names of people in our group. We kicked the ball to each other and as we did that we said their name. When we finished the game we played seaweed. I won the game. Finally we played a proper game of soccer it was simple. The points were 9/2. We won. Then we went back to class. It was awesome. The End.

Class Trip to Riverside

On Friday we went to Riverside pool. We had an early morning tea and all the parents came then. I was in Jasper's mum's car with Jasper and Josh. When we got to Riverside there was a playground. Lots of people were there and there was a big tire disc which spins arond.Then we grabbed our bags and went inside. On the inside it was pretty. There was a lane pool and 2 small warm pools. In the small pools there were some toys like balls, boards and floaties. I got changed and dived in like a torpedo! On the roof there was a basket ball hoop, and we kept shooting the ball through the hoop. It was a really fun day at Riverside, and we even got to have lunch beside the river when we were finished!!

Rugby Skills with Andrew Goodman

On Friday, Andrew Goodman came to school to teach us some rugby skills. He is a Tasman Mako. He tought us the grubber. The grubber is a little kick across the ground. Jay, Levi, and I got in a big triangle and did some grubbers. Then he tought us a punt. The punt is a huge kick in the air. We got in a big triangle again and did some punts. I kicked to Jay and it got in the soccer goal instead of the tryline. Hahaha. Then we played rippa rugby. I was the team captain for the Highlanders, my favourite team. Levi was the team captain for the Crusaders and Carlee was the team captain for the Chiefs. First, it was the Highlanders vs. the Crusaders. The Crusaders won. So it was the Crusaders vs. the Chiefs. But the Chiefs won. So now it was the Highlanders vs the Chiefs. It was really tough but we won.

Time for the second round. The Crusaders were hard to handle but it paid off because we won again. We were doing well. The Crusaders did well again and they won - the Chiefs took a beating from the Crusaders. But it was a pay back because we smashed the Crusaders. So then it was the FINAL game. Highlanders vs. the Chiefs. It was rough but it was a nice win. Lets look at the score board. The Highlanders came first, the Crusaders came second and the Chiefs came last.

Book Week at Nayland Primary

This week there is a book fair at our school and the topic is on animals. A book fair is when there is a whole lot of books for Mum's and Dad's to look at. Mums and Dad's look at them to buy them for their children. On Friday there is a disco at Broadgreen Hall.We can dress up as our favourite book character like Peter Pan, Old McDonald or Lightning Mcqueen. A disco is when you DANCE awesomely and you get the groove in you. This is a tip: dance awesome. At the disco, we will wear the costume we wear to school on Friday. Also, we have an animal photo competition. You have to take the photo by yourself so if you are in the photo you can not enter it in. That is sad but hopefully lots of people enter some great photos!!!!.

Food Chains

We have been learning a lot about insects. We looked at food chains and learned about how food chains work. Then we played a really fun game for practising food chains. Try it out yourself! The website is below - you can go to this website and then there is a link to the game on the left.

Jorja's Kittens Come to School

This week Jorja's kittens came to school. The kittens were so cute that I couldn't take my eyes off them. They were really really small because they were only new babies. There were 8 kittens and lots of different colour kittens. Some of the colours were ginger, some were dark, and there was one white one. All of the kittens were clawing onto the people that were holding them. All of the people in our class really really liked them because they were tiny, so they all wanted to keep them in the class. But, we couldn't because they were so small and they had to go home to their mum. I felt extremely excited about having kittens at school - I hope we see them again!
