Suter Gallery

Last week room three went to the Suter Gallery.

We had to go with a buddy.

When we got there it was amazing it was pretty big.

There was this woman who introduced her self but I can't remember her name.

First we sat on the mat we went with Jonathan not Sue also with some parents.

My dad came.

So we sat on the mat and the woman talked to us about the exhibition that was on.

The exhibition was all about animals so we talked in our groups and decided what was good about birds.

We had to remember one of them and put it on these birds we were going to make.

It was cool because we made them in the stage room.

After we made them we couldn't take them home straight away because they had to be cooked.

When we were on our way back we went through the Queens Gardens and saw all of these coins in the water.

I can't wait until I go again!

On Monday Room 3 went outside with Room 5, Room 14 and Room 6. We versed each other in a tug-of-war. We did it in groups, like age groups, and boys versus boys, and girls versus girls. The side that I was on lost. I thought that we would win. It was fun.

On Monday Room 3 tried out the new tug-of-war rope, it was fun. I can't wait to use itagin. I missed my turn because Iwasn't listening.

Dress up day

Today (Friday August the 14 2009)we dressed up as some of our favourite book characters. I was really shy so I begged my Mum to take me to school in the car. It felt like we went as fast as light in the car because we got to school in no time! When I got to school I saw that lots of people were dressed up. I was the beautiful Pippi Longstockings. I thought that that would be a brilliant idea. When I got to school I saw that some people were dressed up as book characters. Some people wore their costums all day, others wore them for half a day!
I hope we do it again some time!!!
