Maths Update

In Maths, we have been learning about multiplication. We watched a digital story "100 Hungry Ants"  and then in our teams explored the different ways we can make 100 using the Unifix cubes. We talked about putting objects into arrays to make them easier to count.






Learning Journey Evening

On September 27th, Room 12 opened its doors to give family members a glimpse at the daily learning that takes place in the classroom. A big thank you to all the wonderful parents and family members that came along to this even, the children were so excited to have you share in this with them! There were lots of fun stations, with the favourite being the in-class movie theatre, starring the superstars of Room 12.

Faction Carnival

On Thursday the 11th of Sepetember, we had our Faction Carnival. The spring sunshine was glorious and a great time was had by all. The children all did a fantastic job, competing in a running race and 2 team events. It was great to see so many of you come and support this event, including the P & C who put on a fantastic sausage sizzle! The results were as follows:
1st place- Blue
2nd Place- Purple
3rd Place- Red
4th Place- Orange


Mr Sanderson's Science Magic!

This term, we have been exploring Chemical Science and how things can change. We had a great time with our buddy class, exploring how the ink from textas change when we add water. The highlight of the visit was when Mr S showed us his magic beads, which magically change colour when exposed to UV light. We also have loved exploring all the cool things he left us for our investigation centre, including our very own UV lamp!

Book Week 2014

On Monday the 25th of August, Wattle Grove celebrated Book Week with the annual parade. In Room 12 students dressed up as their favourite character from Enid Blyton's "The Enchanted Wood," which happens to be Miss B's favourite childhood story that she was read in primary school too! Our classroom was filled with all sorts of magical fairies and wizards, not to mention the 3 main characters of the story- Jo, Bessie and Fanny. Thanks again to parents for the fabulous costumes!



Class Assembly

On Thursday, Room 12 had their class assembly. It was great to see so many family members and friends attend! The children gave a spectacular performance and should be so proud of the way they learnt and remembered all their lines. A huge thank you to all the parents with your help in costuming our "verbaliscious" superstars. Your ongoing support is greatly appreciated!
