St John Ambulance Visit

We had a visit from Sue who works as an ambulance officer.  She helps people who are not well and need to go to hospital.  Melissa and Xavier got to dress just like an ambulance officer.  Sue brought Ambi, the ambulance.  The children got to listen to the sound of the siren.  They worked in pairs to put a bandage on each other.
Here are some photos of Sue's visit.

Inquiry Learning - Guide Dogs

Mrs Munro came into our classroom to work with Room 4.  
First we read a book about guide dogs and did some research.  We recorded information about the following questions:
What are the qualities of guide dogs? Why are they special?
What do quide dogs do?

Here are some photos of the children researching.

Then we decided if we wanted to research about dog trainers, handlers or puppy walkers.  We read some information and highlighted six facts about the topic we chose.  Using Kidspiration we made a chart, using a title and bubbles.  Then we found some pictures that went with our information.

Here are some photos of the children using Kidspiration.

The children continued with the work on Kidspiration.

Have a look at the charts they made, using the application 'Kidspiration'.

Cross Country

Cross Country
What an amazing day we had.  After morning tea we went out onto the field and ran in our year groups.  All the children participated and had such an enjoyable day.  The weather was perfect!

Swimming

Every Tuesday morning for four weeks the children have been going to Lloyd Elsmore Park for swimming lessons.
It has been an opportunity for them to work on the skills that they know and learn new skills.  The children loved the experience.
