Welcome back!

Hello Term 3! I hope you all had an enjoyable break.

Here are a few things to know about the term ahead:

- Cross Country will be held in Week 4
- Homework will be set with a focus on Spelling and Maths. 
Reading is still expected to be done each night. 
- Please remember to name all uniform

We had an awesome first day back sharing the different things we did during the holidays through '4 Facts' (3 true, 1 false) and writing a 'Recipe' for a great holiday with our own ingredients.

I am looking forward to another great term with the Dream Team! :)

Jumpy

Every Monday and Friday we have Buzz Groups where children can bring in something to share with the rest of the class. 
Last month Greta brought in Jumpy the Frog! We were so excited to have Jumpy in the classroom.

Jumpy was our inspiration to do some descriptive writing. 
Here is one of them below.

Jumpy is slimy.
He is fast at hopping.
We can’t even catch him.
He is good at climbing.
He has golden, black eyes.
Jumpy is so adorable.
He sometimes pretends to be a statue.
Jumpy has webbed feet.
Jumpy loves to play.

Zero Waste

Today we had Colleen, from Zero Waste, come in and talk to us about reducing the waste we create. We learned about things we can do to have less rubbish in our lunch boxes. She suggested we try using containers and snap lock bags to bring our lunch in so that there are less wrappers and gladwrap going in our landfills. Here are some photos from a game we played where we had to choose the best option for creating less rubbish with the foods we have in our lunch boxes.
