HO HO HO!!

Today we had our Year 3-6  Christmas Concert, marking the end of the year.  We looked fab in our festive outfits and sang beautifully- we also had Sophia. Dan, Millie and Esme playing the violin and some of us shared our "What Christmas means to me" thoughts.
Tomorrow is our last day as a class in Room 15, and I'd like to say thanks for being a great Year 3 class everyone! Thanks also to all the parents who have helped throughout the year.  I hope Santa is good to all of you and that you have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year - enjoy the holidays!

Fishing at the Wharf!

As part of our EOTC week, we made fishing rods and went down to Rona Wharf to try our hands! No fish were caught, but we had great fun and Cella caught a crab, well done!
Thanks to all the helpers who joined us!

Everybody Everywhere Needs Water!
















This term we have been looking at the water cycle, and what we use water for. We have also been thinking about how much we use, and whether we could save water somehow. 

After reading about the use of water in different countries, we also realised how lucky we were to have water on tap, as we read about the problems some countries face

One of our homework activities was to design a water carrier - we tested them out and some were really creative- have a look at the photos! 

Last Friday, to finish off our Water Unit, we had a Wacky Hair Day and brought in a gold coin donation to raise money for a World Vision water gift. Have a look at the link on the right to see what we could buy- all the Year 3 and 4 classes together raised over $400. Well done everyone!
