Awesome Portraits

This is an example of the awesome self portraits we painted of ourselves. We practised mixing the colour on the page and talked about warm and cold colours. What amazing artists we have!

Hopping Corn

Yesterday Room 5 (and today Room 7) did a science experiment for whole class writing. It involved ingredients most of you would have in your cupboards and generated a lot of discussion. Please see me (Casey) if you would like the instructions.

Sports for Juniors

As a parent I am always on the look out for activities for my son to be involved in. This was raised at the Meet the Teacher night last month. There are currently a lot of activities and sports on offer and most of them have been advertised in the school newsletter along with contact details.

* Rugby - late registrations can be taken at the club open day this Saturday from 10.00 - 12.00 at the rugby grounds.

* Netball - registration day next week on March 10th  (the ONLY day) at school. The sessions for Year 1-2 are run during a lunch time at school and were loved by the juniors last year. It costs $5 (pay fees on-line) and runs in term 2.

* Karate - Tuesday afternoons (for juniors) in the school hall from 3.30 - 4.30 and they offer two free sessions to see if your child likes it.

* Hockey - Trainings start next week on March 9th. You can email uppercluthahockey@gmail  for more information.

* Northlake Duathlon - March 28th. If you register by March 14th it costs $20.

And if you have a daughter who isn't so much into sports...

* Pippins - Wednesday 4.00 - 5.00pm.

Domini Park

Thank you to all the parents that helped us walk to Domini Park. The children were very good practising the kerb drill and all enjoyed playing at the park.

Thanks Jonty for bringing your chickens in so we can watch their growth. You were fantastic at answering the children's questions too.
