Room 1 Water Babies

We started swimming lessons down at Wai Splash on Monday. We have been sorted into 3 groups with 3 tutors and we are doing really well with each tutor. They are helping us all to learn new skills in the water. We are becoming much more confident and we can hardly wait for the triathalon on December the 6th, so we can show our parents how great we are!

Magnets with Mrs Bone

We had a great day sorting out what objects were magnetic and what weren't by predicting.
Then we practised with the magnet. We had a lot of fun testing and observing what was going on. Take a look at this video to see us testing our predictions.

Science Investigation Discovery Day

On Friday 8th of November we had another Science Discovery Day. In Room 1 we were investigating circuits and predicting what would make the bulb light up. In Room 2 we were predicting what a magnet would pick up. In Room 3 we were predicting which objects would float and which would sink. In Room 14, we were looking at kitchen science as we watched a balloon expand on a bottle.

The Indonesian Dancers

On Wednesday 6th of November, two Indonesian dancers came to school to show us their special dances. They also taught us one of their songs and some of us got to put on a special Indonesian costume for a traditional dance. That was lots of fun. We also got to ask them questions and found out that they travel all over the world demonstrating their dances at lots of schools.

 The lady used a big fan as part of her first dance.

They wore lovely Indonesian costumes .
 Here is the song we sang with them.

                         Here are some of the children in special skirts doing a traditional skirt dance.
