| We tied ourselves in a human knot to learn about communication and teamwork! |
 |
| It was pretty tricky! |
 |
| Noah's Ark Zoo Farm came in to talk to us about the question "Should animals be kept in zoos?" |
 |
| They showed us real life objects made from animal skin - it made us very sad! |
 |
| But it was pretty cool to be able to touch real zebra hair! |
 |
| ...and to see a tigers skull! |
 |
| We learnt that snake skin feels just like our finger nails |
 |
| Can you guess what animal this bag was made from? |
 |
| Some of us guessed it straight away! |
 |
| This snake's skin was nearly the length of our classroom when we unrolled it! |
 |
 |
| We asked a lot of questions and then... |
 |
| ...we got to touch some LIVING animals! |
 |
| There was the ever so soft chinchilla... |
 |
| ...and a wriggly corn snake... |
 |
 |
| Did you know that 50 chinchillas die every time one chinchilla fur coat is made? 😟 |
 |
| We sorted some pictures endangered animals to see if we knew which were the most endangered and which were the least |
 |
| Then we looked at real artefacts - what do you think this is? |
 |
| It's a tooth! (Miss Mitchell can't remember which animal so maybe you'll have to help me when we get back to school!) |
 |
| The next activity took a lot of bravery and a lot of us overcame our fears! You're about to see lots of silly faces! |
 |
| Then finally we met a leopard tortoise |
 |
| For our Christmas dinner at school we made (s)elfie hats. |
 |
| On the last day of school we played some fun games to celebrate our hard work this term |
 |
| and we got the treat we have all been waiting for - a class movie! |
 |
| Just in case the cards didn't get home - here we all are showing off our beautiful robin landscapes. |
Above is our performance of our dance related to Buddhism - we used yoga poses and meditation music to create it. All of the positions and movements were the children's own ideas.
 |
| and last, but not least, our class collage of Buddha finally came together after weeks of hard work! For Term 3 our topic is 'Light and Shadow'. Below is the homework list for parents and children. Homework is due every Friday. PE will be on Tuesdays (freestyle gymnastics - parkour) and Wednesdays (tag rugby).    |
