Swimming

Today we went swimming at the Kilbirnie Aquatic Centre. We all got swim tested by the instructors so that next week we know what groups we are in. When we got back Miss Cranney said we had been great role models. One Grandma said how wonderful it was to see the big children helping the little children to get dressed!

Our School Virtue-Friendliness

At the moment our whole school is trying to be friendly towards others. This is our school virtue. Room Ten showed us what this meant at their assembly. Our class has lots of really friendly children in it and we try really hard to include others and to care for others. Here is a display we made that shows our class family. We are great friends!

Our Learning Goals

In our writing and handwriting we all have different things we are trying to improve. When our teacher talks to us about what it is we need to work on she puts a stamp in our book so we don't forget. It looks like this.

Our Golden Rules

We have spent some time talking about what would make our class a great place to learn in. Here are the main rules we came up with: Respect Ourselves, Respect Others, Respect Our School. We had a special session signing these classroom treaty at Assembly. Mya signed it on behalf of all of us.
We were really excited to see our Golden Rules in this week's Welcom (6th March).

Meet Our Class Mascot

Meet Skiwi! He has been to lots of schools and different places with Miss Cranney. Last year he even went to hospital with her. This year we hope he will get to visit many places we can blog about.
