Family Friday Term 3 Week 1

On Friday my auntie Catherine came in. She came all the way from Ireland and talked to us about her job and read us some books called the Giant Cathaway and Sweet Molly Malone. It was fun learning about some tales from Ireland and hearing about the school she works at. Then we played wink murderer. I was the detective and I had three guesses to guess who the wink murderer was. If the detective couldn't guess the murderer, the murderer became the detective. At the end she gave us some yummy chupa chups. Thank you auntie Catherine!

Cake Making

On Thursday we made a sponge cake for free choice. The people who wanted to make it got to do it. We all got to help make the cake mixture we all got a turn at mixing it all together. Once the mixture was ready it had to go up to the staffroom to bake to eat. The cake was yummy after it was made.

Family Friday Week 9

Today my mum came in for Family Friday and she told us about the Cape Town mistrals and the competition to be best dressed best dance and best singing. She also told us a little bit about Table Mountain and when clouds are low it looks like there’s a table cloth on Table Mountain. I surprised the class by showing them how people dance for the festival. Thanks for coming in mum!

Family Friday Week 8

On Friday Anija’s mum Marieke came in for family Friday we talked about the FIFA world cup and did a quiz about it. Some of the questions were who are the defending champions? Who is the official sponsor of the FIFA world cup? And who were the only team not to lose a game at the last FIFA world cup. We also had questions with pictures. At the end everyone pulled a name out of the container and can support that team then at the end of the FIFA world cup whoever wins gets a prize.

MOTAT!

On Thursday all of Connelly syndicate went to motat and we were put into groups of five with one parent .We all got in to the bus and we drove off! When we got there we all had morning tea and then we had a BIG list of things to do.

First we went to the old village we went to the house, school and the church that said the church of GOOD SHEPHERD! After that we went to the trams. It was so cool and the driver was from GOOD SHEPHERD! It was amazing.

Next we went to the challenge room, my favourite was the earthquake sit. You would go back and forth, back and forth, and it was really fun! There were lots of other things there too. Then we went to the huge train, inside it was really small but you know it was cool.

The best part that was everyone’s favourite part was the MIRROR MAZE! There were kids running in and out people pushing  through and someone spewed on my hand waaaaaaaaaa

                                                In the end it was amazing!

Sushi

Sushi is our class pet. We all have turns looking after Sushi. He is a fish, we feed him twice a day. Everyone was excited when Vanessa told us she wrote a letter to Mrs Hahn and said we were allowed Sushi. But Mrs Suggate said if something happens to him we have to clean it up. Now Anija is asking if we are allowed another pet fish, the bad thing is we don’t know what gender Sushi is!!! Dun dun dun!!!

We love Sushi he is really cool and the lucky thing is that were the only class that has a class pet YAY!!! Hopefully.
