Bees, Bees, Bees.

Room 5 & 6 are very excited about studying bees. Today we had a visit from a Beekeeper who was very impressed with what the children already knew about bees. She brought along the suit that she wears when working with the bees and an assortment of pollen, honey, honeycomb and the hive. We all got to taste the honey straight from the frame where the bees build their cells. 
Very exciting!!!

Hope they went home and shared all their new knowledge with you. They shared all they found out with Room 7 and 8.  

Isaac is holding 3kgs of honey. He said it was very heavy.

Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day to all our Room 6 mums. 

On Friday the children wrote about what they loved about their mum and decorated a diploma especially for their mum.
If you have not received yours, you better search for it in your child's school bag.

Tree art work with Mrs Prattley

Aiva, Taylyn, Johnny, Wynn, Ella and Ciana

With Mrs Prattley we made some tree art work. For our art work we had to put our arms on paper and Mrs Prattley traced around them, so they are unique to us. We got to paint the trees and when we finished we put different colored flowers on with double sided tape.   Here is some of our work. By Taylor

The Wetlands Walk

It was a beautiful morning for our "Wetlands Walk".  We saw lots of leaves falling from the trees, ducks and swans. We learned the names of some trees. It was a long walk and we were all very tired.
The most exciting part of the morning was throwing the leaves at our friends. By Amber
