We are having a walk on Wednesday to celebrate World Book Day and to raise money to place a “Memory Bench” outside of the school to remember our little Princess Leah.
Children can dress in their favourite character’s costume and/or bring their favourite book.
We are asking every child to bring in a small donation.
Thank you so much for all the support towards the school!
Through February we have been working on our gymnastics skills. We have practiced three types of rolls (forward, log and teddy bear rolls) as well as perfecting our balances on the floor and on the benches!!

Weather Vanes in Second Class
In Second Class we have learned the different instruments we can use to help understand weather. To aid our knowledge of wind direction we made our very own Weather Vanes in class!!
