Hello World!

Miss Little would like to say a big sorry to everyone for how late this first blog entry is! We have had a great 3 weeks at school already - it has all zoomed by so fast!

We have really enjoyed singing and dancing and being film stars for the day at Pickled Possum Studios. It was for a programme called KidZone and we sang a song called Great Big Wheels. It was very hot under the bright lights and we had to sing the song lots of times.

We drew around our bodies and decorated them to look just like us. We hope you like the pictures.

Jeannie's Christmas Poem

C Christmas carols make my day,

H Holly and mistletoe in Christmas, gay.

R Reindeer flight and Christmas lights,

I I really like the way they shine.

S Santa’s presents and Christmas cake, figgy pudding and Christmas steak.

T Trees and tinsel, toys and roasts.

M Musical melodies, joy and hope.

A Anzac biscuits and oven make cookies.

S South pole Christmas and what a feast!

We Love Pixie Town!

We went to Pixie Town at the Early Settlers Museum. The Pixies were really old. Some of our Mums and Dads could remember looking at them when they were kids!

Some of the Pixies moved. They had big feet and looked a bit funny!



The boys got to ride on the sleigh. Miss Little liked Regan's big cheesy grin!




We made cards and wrote a message to Santa. We even got to post the cards to him in a special letter box. we really hope he can write back to us.




There were some cool dress ups there as well. You could dress up as elves or reindeer or even Santa!

Miss Little got a big cuddle from one of Santa's special helpers!

Pet Day Extravaganza

On Friday we had our Pet Day.
There were dogs, cats, a lamb, rabbits and soft toys! Riley Bell was going to bring his pet snail but it died!



We played some games while the pets were being judged!


Chewy came and did some tricks for us!






PS If Uncle Jason and Duncan and Angus are looking at this from Vancouver - you HAVE to leave us a message!!!!

Teddy Bear Picnic

We are having a teddy bear picnic today. We went around the circle and showed our teddy bears.

Some teddy bears squeaked. Some of the teddy bear’s names are Ted or Edward or Otago bear. There was one called Snowbell I think.
The big kids are going to come and play games with us!
I think our teddy bear picnic is going to be fantastic!

Our new Inquiry

We are looking at what on earth would happen if we had no transport!!

We are just tuning in at the moment and doing lots of thinking about how much we already we know and what we might want to find out!

Jeannie thoguht we should post what we just did in class before!

We looked at a train, a plane, a car and a train and then we brainstomed in paris what these things have in common!

Look at what we came up with!

What do these things have in common?

· have engines
· carry people
· people to drive them
· all have tyres (boat trailer)
· all have own space, cars on road, train on track, plane in air and boat in water
· have windows
· vehicles
· all move
· steering wheels?
· travel to different countries
· all transport
· all have seats
· all have doors
· all travel
· all have motors
· all have garages/covers
· all pollute the air
· seatbelts – do trains??

Would a submarine pollute the air????
Do they all run on petrol???
