The Grand Finale after a fun Book Week. Don't they all look fantastic.

When we arrived back from the Life Education Classroom we were surprised to find a special message on the board from Harold. We will have to send him some of our Ted stories or maybe we could write a special story about Harold.

Last week we were lucky enough to go tree planting with Room 8 at Simmonsen Reserve. We helped to plant 200 trees and then we weeded around trees that children who use to be in Room 2, planted 2 years ago. We could hardly see them until we pulled away the long grass and weeds. Then we put mulch around the bottom of all the trees to help the roots keep moist and stop them drying out.
It is going to be exciting to watch our trees grow as we grow in our time at Riverlands School.
I wonder how big they will be when we are in Year 8. We will have to wait and see.

On Friday we celebrated our learning with Room 1 and a large group of parents. We were proud to be able to share with them some of the interesting things we had discovered during our volcano inquiry.Our cinquain poems and "things we have learnt" slideshow are both posted on this blog for you to see. Of course one of the most exciting parts of the afternoon was the Volcano Party. What an amazing array of Volcano food. We had to invite our buddy classes to help eat it all. Thanks to all the parents for supporting your children by attending and /or providing food.
