Today we explored the question ‘what is area?’. We looked at how area can be deceiving - the longest shape doesn’t always have the biggest area! We also discovered that it’s extremely hard to measure shapes with ‘post it’ notes when it’s windy! Whoops!!…

We made chocolate sparklers to celebrate bonfire night! I’m not sure how many actually got home in one piece, as there were a lot of chocolate smeared faces on the way out of school

Thank you to Isaac and Bobby for leading our liturgy this afternoon on the subject of kindness. The scripture was perfect and we enjoyed watching the Good Samaritan. We reflected on the way we are with each other and we spoke about how we could make people happy through kindness.

Thank you to Niamh and Georgia for a very peaceful liturgy about friendship. We had time to think about, and reflect on the type of friend we would like to be. Thank you girls.

What a surprise it would be if we came downstairs in the morning to an octopus in our sink!

We have been using our inference skills to draw meanings from photos. We had a lovely morning role playing what we would do in this situation. Some groups even rang the F.B.I!! 

Well done Year…
