The Challenge Trophy!!!


Room 1 and Room 2 have interclass competitions, where the winner gets the honor of claiming 'the trophy' ...  until next challenge!!

Year 5 Mini Inquiry




While the Year 6 students from Room 1 and 2 went to technology the Year 5's spent a day with Mrs Shaw and a day with Miss Edgerton doing mini inquiries. With Mrs Shaw we learnt all about ANZAC day and made care packages for the teachers at Winton School for all their hard work this team. We got to make ANZAC biscuits to put into the packages. With Miss Edgerton we did easter activities and got to make lolly cake! 


Teaching Challenge!










The Year 6 students learnt all about how to use speech marks correctly in their writing. They then had to be the teachers and teach the Year 5's how to use them. We then had a competition to see which group could put it into practice to find out our best Year 6 teacher!

Where do you think he works?

                        Mr McManly by Meg Johnstone


Mr McManly got out of bed early one Saturday morning and lumbered into his humongous kitchen. His wife was there and on the table was a delicious, steaming hot breakfast of crispy bacon and pancakes, which were drizzled with golden syrup. He sat down in his large, comfy wooden chair and started eating his breakfast. About 10 minutes later he marched upstairs and got into his big white pants, dark blue top, and put his size 13 shoes on before striding downstairs again. He called goodbye to his wife and got into his big black Austin Martin.
He drove into town and pulled up outside a huge, flash white building on the main road. He toddled into the building and weaved his way through the tables and chairs to the kitchen. He puts on his big apron and white hat, got out a pan and puts it on the stove. Mr McManly hears Bob shout, 
"One beef and pineapple sandwich!" Mr McManly quickly grills a sandwich and shouts, 
"Orders up!"
