Chitting potatoes!
Our second class are growing potatoes this year. To prepare them before putting them in the ground, we first have to chit them. We leave them in an area in the classroom that has some east facing light, and we will see what happens over the next few weeks. Sprouts should grow to about 5 cm and then we can plant them in the ground.
Cannonball Run
We were very excited on Friday morning to head out and see the supercars travelling by our school.
Picasso Inspired Art
We had lots of fun drawing ourselves in the style of Pablo Picasso and trying to make the face in our art work after.
Mistakes Help Us Grow
We really enjoyed making the best of a mistake and creating art from it. Making mistakes is a really important part of learning and we’re looking forward to seeing all the wonderful learning that comes from our mistakes this year.
Save Fred Team Work Challenge
We started the year off in a great way by playing lots of teamwork games. One of our favourite was Save Fred. We worked in groups to put our jelly snake “Fred” into his jelly lifebuoy using only paper clips to touch the jellies.
