Week 3 in Room 8

There's nothing like an assembly item to make you realize how much work you have packed in. Everyone enjoyed their moment in the sun and it was a chance for us to show off our hard work in the last 3 weeks.


On Friday we had a guest speaker - Zacch McRae from Room 7. Zacch showed us the ticket his great great great great grandmother had, for the ship which came to Quarantine Island in 1874. Fascinating! 

Grandparents' Day was delightful, and it was so interesting to hear stories from yesteryear. 













We even played some old fashioned games  -like marbles, pick up sticks and Yahtzee. 




Thank you Kaleb! Kaleb very kindly brought slushies for everyone in Room 8 - and there was even enough left over to give the grandparents one. What a lovely treat on a hot afternoon. 




This week we are looking forward to our school athletics on Wednesday.
