We met an author

We went to the library to visit a special person. His name is Mark Dorey and he is an author. We loved reading his book “Can we walk to the moon?” We found out about how the story came about and he read the book to us. We were also lucky to hear about another one of his books ”Polly and the Magic Bubbles” it was very exciting and he kindly gave us some magic bubbles of our own to take home. One day we are hoping to write our own book just like Mark!

PC Rob

PC Rob came to visit us. He told us about his job and all the special clothes he wears. Some of us tried on his handcuffs and they were too big for us. We also tried on his different police hats. We told him when we see him in town we will say hello and give him a wave. We liked being police constables. Look at us in PC Rob’s hats.

Chinese New Year

The Lower Foundation Phase children came to our Chinese feast. We had to prepare lots of things just like Chinese people do. We helped to clean, organise and decorate the hall. We made our own menus of things we would like to eat, we made Chinese dragons and made music to dance our dragons to through the playground. Lilly even challenged Mrs Ward to make a dragon so she had to make a big dragon and got the children to help her decorate it. We also made special drums and Chinese red envelopes with chocolate money in them.

We learnt a lot about how Chinese New Year is celebrated and had a delicious feast provided for us by The Oriental Buffet.  Many many thanks to Mr and Mrs Zhang for preparing such lovely food and helping us to celebrate Chinese New Year.
