This week's stars

I am so proud of this weeks certificate winners. They have tried so hard to follow instructions and give of their best! Keep it up all of you!

Hello Jessica!

There are four people in Jessica's family. Her older sister is at Eden in the high school. She loves going to the beach, doing ballet and taking photos with her moms camera. Her favourite toys are her two monster dolls. She has two Weimaraner dogs that she loves. Jess says that playing in the snow with her family was such fun.

This is Zeenath

Zeenath comes from a large family - six altogether! But that is not all....she has 5 dogs, 2 hamsters and some fish! She loves sweets, barbies, going to the beach and fast cars! She and her family like having picnics together. Her dad is a doctor, Zeenath says her mom does not 'work' but stays at home and looks after her and her brothers and sisters - a full time job if you ask me!

Hello Sonia!

Sonia is also new to our school this year. She has settled in well and has made lots of new friends! The class was so excited to hear her oral as they couldn't wait to taste her most favourite food - pizza! She says that bacon, cheese, mushroom and aromat are her toppings of choice  There are five in her family. She loves her Barbie DVD's and has over 20 movies in her collection! She loves her sister and brother, but says that her brother likes to wrestle and punch -which she does not like!

Introducing Adrian

Adrian is new to our school this year. We welcome him and hope that he enjoys his years at Eden. Adrian just loved telling us all about his family. He is well traveled  having visited America, Australia and Fiji. He loves soccer and has many of the famous teams as his favourite! His best player is Wayne Rooney. He enjoys playing on his x-box and eating macaroni and cheese. 

Ooey,gooey, muck!

In the book "Bad Luck Duck", the duck gets stuck in the ooey, gooey mud. She asks for help, but only goose was prepared to rescue her.

We decided that it would be wonderful to make some ooey, gooey muck and write a poem about what it feels like.

Both grade 2 classes went into the hall where we made some "muck" using maizena, water and food colouring. The children had a wonderful time playing and experiencing the muck. This was evident when they had to come up with words to describe what it felt like. We had a tons of words.


After we had cleared up, it was back to class to write our poems. I was so delighted with the end results. They are now proudly displayed on our back wall for all to read.

 

Introducing Caleb

Caleb was our 2nd pupil of the day. He just loved telling all about himself and his family! There are 4 in his family, his mom, dad and his younger sister. He told us that he loves to go and look for fossils in the garden with his grandfather. His granny has many animals at her house:- a tortoise, rabbits and she used to have lots of chickens. He has a number of foods that he enjoys like prawns, sushi, caramel cream cake and nachos. He even brought some Nachos for us all to taste! He loves spending time with  his family, going to restaurants and celebrating birthdays.
