Some of us made clothes, bee hives, sports gear, parachutes and painting. We discovered we are very talented and creative people who work really well together to solve problems.

Drop, Cover and Hold

Today at 9.15 we were apart of the shake out drill. To talked about what to do in a earthquake. First you need to drop down low, cover your head and body and hold on tight. We practiced out on the field and in class. If we out on the field we need to huddle and cover our heads with our hands and get down into a turtle position. If you are in a building it is best to get under a table or chair. Make sure your head is covered and hold on to the tables leg.



We had a lesson today on cricket. It was super cool. We had to bat and catch the cricket balls. We were really good at hitting the ball with the correct side of the bat. It was hardtop catch the ball because they flew so fast.

Bee Day

We had a awesome day today for bee day. We learnt about why bees are important and how they help us in the world. Did you know if bees were gone not plants would live!!!!! WOW!
 They are a really important insect. Xavier has a bee hive at his house. His mum brought us some honey to try from the hive. It was super cool. Take a look.




We planted some sunflowers for the bees
