Mixing Colours



First we mixed full fat milk, washing liquid and food colouring. Then we watched wicked creations happen - the colours were bursting! There was a rocket shape moving as fast as a hippo. The sun shape looked incredible, amazing and awesome. I want to try this at home because it was easy and fantastic.

School Garden


This is our school garden. The plants have grown a lot since this photo!
We planted green hairy caterpillers - not really, but they arrived anyway!
We had lettuce from our garden on our sandwiches last week, it was yummy. Michael brought in a blueberry bush, we haven't had any berries yet. Nicky brought in strawberry plants, the red ones keep disappearing... we wonder where?
We love our garden!

Surf To School Visit


Who is this mystery person???

We had a fun session in April talking about safety at our lakes and beaches when two life guards came to visit.

Customs Dogs


We were delighted to have two special dogs visit us at school. They were from Customs, and are trained to find drugs! The visit was part of the Seniors DARE Programme. We loved how one dog scratched at the bags, while the other dog was passive and sat beside the bag that smelled like drugs. Titan was funny because when his lead was off he ran around with his toy!

Our garden
by Kaleb
In our garden there is green, healthy lettuce growing by the long green chives. I like our garden because it has all my favourite food in it. There are marigolds in the garden to keep the insects out. On the outside we have put crushed egg shells to keep out snails and slugs too. I really like our school garden because it has lots of good food for you to eat!
