Working and Playing Together
Earth Day
The students participated in the school clean up day to celebrate Earth day.
Geography
Students enjoyed learning about earth, exploring the globe, completing the continent jigsaw and learning about land, air and water.
Drama
For our drama class the students listened to the story Snow White And The Seven Dwarfs and enjoyed re-enacting some of the scenes.
Science
We planted our Runner bean seeds during the week. We learned how to take care of the seeds to help them to grow, they need water, sun and most importantly our love and care!
Digital Week
Students performed basic computer skills such as turning on the computer, inserting a disc in the computer and turning off computer. They learned how to name and recognise the different parts of the computer. They looked at the keyboard and found the letters of their name.
We also recognised and used symbols on the interactive whiteboard.

Winter Science
Colourful frozen hands: We enjoyed making our frozen hands, filling the latex gloves with water and food colouring,. Touching them was a very funny feeling, then we placed them on trays and put them in the freezer.
After all our work we then set out to melt the frozen hands with salt, this was fun also, watching the frozen hands dissolve into coloured water.

SCIENCE WEEK
We had great fun participating in science experiments: walking water, mixing colours and rainbow flowers. We watched how colours mixed in the milk with an explosion of colours when we added the washing up liquid, how water appeared to walk from one container to another, and as if by magic changed the colour of the water water in the other containers & how the petals of the flowers changed colour over time by absorbing the coloured water up through their stems.
Very exciting!
