Top o' the mornin'to you!

We had great fun today in our green clothes for St Patrick's Day and it was great to be able to come to school at night time and catch up with our friends. Thanks to all the mums and dads in our school who worked so hard to organise the St Patrick's Day Fun Night. It was awesome!

Good Fun on Grandparents' Day

We celebrated "Grandparents' Day" with all of the Year 1 classes on Friday 9th March.
It was great fun to have so many Grandparents able to join us for the activities. We made handprints with our grandparents and read lots of stories. We sang songs for them and then we ate some delicious "G" foods. Thankyou to all those grandparents who were able to come. We hope that our grandparents who couldn't make it will enjoy looking at our blog and reading about all of the things we have been doing in class.

Grandchild's Hand
The promise of tomorrow
And the hope of dreams come true...
A reminder of the childhood
That's still a part of you...

The wonder of a miracle
From which this love began...
There is so much found in the touch
Of holding a grandchild's hand.

What a busy day!

This morning we had lots of friendly helpers for our scrapbooking morning and after an hour of plenty of fun and hard work, we now have a beautiful scrapbook of the people in our class.
A big thanks to all those Mums and Dads who were able to stay and help us to put it together - and also thanks to all those who sent in photos, comments, stickers and paper to make our pages bright and colourful.
Please find some time to visit our classroom to view your child's page and those of their friends.

This week we are looking at the /j/ sound so we made jack-in-the-box and cooked jelly. We also counted jellybeans (and got to eat one too!).

We are looking forward to learning about the hard /g/ sound too over the next few days and we are especially looking forward to our Grandparents Morning on Friday.

Learning is so much fun in 1B!

Pyjama Party

This week we had a Pyjama Party with pizza and popcorn. We had lots of fun but we looked pretty peculiar in our Pyjamas!
