St.Theresa's Feast Day

On Friday we celebrated St. Theresa's Feast Day with Mother of God school. We went to mass together and participated in lots of fun activities. We made a special wreath because St. Theresa was called the little flower.


Responsible Pet Ownership.

In our Inquiry unit this term we are learning how to look after and care for pets. We had a special guest speaker 'Maria' who came to visit us with her dog Elsie. Maria taught us so many things about looking after pet dogs.










Thank you Maria and Elsie!

Mathematics

Sharon found some magic beans and we were able to share 10 of them with a partner.
We completed a chart to show how we made 10 by throwing up our beans and discovering how many landed on the white and silver sides.





















We are so very clever.
