Cross country!











A couple of weeks ago we held our school cross country.  It was a great afternoon and we were blessed with fine weather unlike last year!  All of LZ7 tried their very best and enjoyed the run.  Congratulations to Kaylin who was the winner of the year 2 girls!

MHP Olympic Day!

We had a wonderful day celebrating the Olympic Games at MHP.  The day started with an opening ceremony parade where each Learning Zone shared the team they had been supporting and learning about.  We had Norway so had made Norweigan viking helmets, swords and shields to wear!  After morning tea it was time for the games to begin!  We were split into teams of mixed year groups and rotated around 20 different activities for the rest of the day.  We got to have fun doing running races, soccer skills, throwing rubber chickens, playing tug of war and moonhoppers just to name a few!  At each station the teacher would record in our team book who had shown the Olympic values the best and real medals were given out to the top 3 for the school at assembly that week.  What a cool day!

Fraction Penguins!

As part of our learning about fractions, we decided to make fraction penguin pictures.  We had to create all the body parts from fractions of a circle including halves, quarters and eighths.  It was a fun way to help us learn!  We think our fraction penguins are pretty cool!

Congratulations to Tanya!

Well done to Tanya for winning the Excellence Award for LZ7 at assembly this week!  Tanya earned her certificate for her wonderfully positive attitude towards learning and always working so hard in class.  Tanya, you are a great role model for others in LZ7 - keep up the awesome work!

Olympic news!

The 2012 Olympic Games are well underway and last week we were given a team to support and also learn about.  LZ7 has Norway so we are starting to learn a little bit about the country as well as their Olympic team!  Watch this space to see what we do!

Our Field to Table learning...shared at our family feast!

Last week we celebrated the end of two terms of learning by having a 'family feast' where we invited parents along to a meal that we had made as a class.  The meal was the end product of our learning around the concept of "From Field to Table".  Here is the slideshow that we shared on the night.

Ice cream by Troy K!

Wow!  Today we had an awesome morning because we ate ice cream.  Yesterday we made the ice cream.  The ingredients were vanilla, eggs, bowls, chocolate chips, cream and chocolate syrup.  Miss Cooper and Miss Baker helped us put the delicious ice cream in our bowls.  Our ice cream was way way better than Tip Top's.  Tip Top's was yummy but our one was creamy, delicious, scrumptious and yummy!  That's how good our one is.  We are going to make our own dinner with our family.  We are going to make heaps and heaps and we are going to have the broccoli, parsnip, carrots and beans for our dinner too.

Wow!  It's awesome.  It's better than Tip Top's.  Yay!  It had chocolate chips in it.  How does it get to be ice cream?  It's so creamy.  We had the beater to mix it.  The beater felt like an earthquake.  The ingredients were eggs and chocolate chips, vanilla and cream too.  The ice cream was so delicious I wanted to shove it all in my mouth!
