EARTHQUAKE UPDATE

Hi to everyone from Room 7 and following our blog.

What a week we have had in our city.We are so lucky that our side of the city was not hit so hard but we have all got a few breakages and are trying to get things back together again.

We are all feeling for those badly affected.

It is just great to see so many people helping each other and supporting the community.

My washing machine has been doing overtime washing clothes belonging to the wonderful Australian medical staff and ambulance drivers staying at the Burnside Rugby Clubrooms.It's the least I can do- how about you- what are you doing to help others?

Take care

Miss France

We have been learning to count numbers in order. We are learning to solve problems with Mrs Black.Caleb, Isaiah and Sam

In Room 7 we have got a big rock collection and the 3 rock types are Igneous which is volcanic rock , sedimentary rock and metamorphic. Rocks is one of our topics this year .Liam

We are learning to classify rocks in to the 3 groups.

Here is a great little poem to keep in mind for 2011

My Promise

Each day I'll do my best,
and won't do any less,
My work will always please me,
and I won't accept a mess
I'll colour very carefully,
my writing will be neat
and I simply won't be happy,
"til my work is all complete
I'll always do my homework,
and I'll try with every task
and I won't forget my promise--
to do my very best!
