Kitten visit!

We were very lucky today to have 2 kitten visitors in LZ6!! Miss Lee brought her two kittens called Jelly and Mao to show us. Jelly was a burmese and he was a bluey grey brown colour. He was very friendly and loved to get pats. Mao was a girl and she had a fluffy white tail. She had one blue eye and one green eye! She was a little bit shy and liked to find hiding places like under Miss Baker's chair! Thanks Miss Lee for sharing your cute kittens with us!

Happy birthday Jed!

Happy birthday for Sunday Jed! Thanks for sharing your celebration with us...especially those incredibly delicious cookies that mum made!! Hope you have a great day!

Maui slows the sun artwork!

Here is a sneak preview of our latest artwork - the sun from the Maui legend "Maui slows the sun". We worked hard to make our art very detailed and because we didn't have tiny enough brushes we used cotton buds to colour in our work with dye. It took a LONG time!! When it was all coloured we then went over some bits with bleach which took the colour out and made the work "pop!" Close up pictures coming soon...watch this space!

Happy birthday Diyana!

Happy birthday Diyana!! Thank you for sharing your celebration with us today - the chocolate cake that mum made was delicious! I hope it was a great day for you!
And here is a sneak peek at Diyana's new baby brother Ali - he joined us for the birthday celebrations this afternoon as well. Isn't he cute?

Jackson's winning short story!

As promised here is Jackson's winning entry in the year 1&2 short story competition! The judges comments were "I like the overall feel good factor of this story and some of the interesting words used like 'fire coloured UFO ship' - they create a picture in my head". Great job Jackson!!

Way to go Jackson!!

We are very excited and proud of Jackson because he won the year 1 and year 2 short story competition at the school library this week! He won a fantastic dinosaur book and some special treats to eat. The stories are on display in the library for everyone to read and when we get a copy we will put it up here on the blog as well. Way to go Jackson!!

Diary winner this week is...Diyana!

I know that we did not send the diaries home this last week as I was not at school but I still read through the entries that had already been written. I choose Diyana to be the winner this week as I loved the personal voice she used in her pancake story. I agree that pancakes are delicious and it made me hungry to eat some! Well done Diyana, keep up the great work!

I spy fun in LZ6!

Over the past few weeks we have been reading I spy books and playing I spy games online. These photos are from the 'I Spy Treasure Hunt' game where we had to be pirates and follow clues on a map. We liked playing I spy so much that we decided to make our own I spy pictures! We collected things from home and around the classroom and took a photo of them and then choose objects in it for people to find. Miss Baker helped us make up the rhyme and we have posted them all on the blog for people to try! Just click on the image to make it bigger.
