Sports Ed - Dodgeball

Today we finished our dodgeball competition. We discovered that dodgeball is a much faster game than hockey and soccer, and that it is not as much of a team sport. Here are the results and the winning team - Chipmunks!!! Well done to all teams. Keep an eye out for a notice as well as some posters around the school about the final part of our Sports Education. It's going to be fun!!

Junior Poetry Competition

Today Caitlin, George and Oliver recited their poems in the Year 2 poetry recital. All three children did a superb job and should be very proud of themselves. Several parents and teachers commented on how well they all did. Oliver did especially well and came second out of all the Year 2 children. Congratulations Ollie and well done!! Niamh M also represented our class as one of the four announcers. This was a big task and she did a wonderful job. Thanks Niamh.

The Year 0, 1 and 2 winners.

Sports Ed - Day 2/3

Yesterday we had the last round-robin games for our soccer tournament. The teams with the most points were the All Blacks and the Chipmunks. Here is the results table for the competition. The teams could get a maximum of 10 points per game (5 for the win plus 5 fair play points). Points are lost for poor sportsmanship and poor behaviour.

Today we held the final between the All Blacks and the Chipmunks. It started off as a very close game with the score still on 0-0 at half time. In the second half the Chipmunks stepped up to take a 3-0 win. The team picked Max and George as their best players. Well done boys. Next week we start our hockey tournament.

Soccer Champions!

Poetry Champs

Yesterday we had the Room 16 Poetry Recital. Wow - the performances were fantastic!! It was incredibly hard to choose 3 children to go through to the Junior recital next week. Well done to all children and thank you for your all your hard work. Here are the results:
1st - Caitlin
2nd - George
3rd - Oliver
4th - Niamh M
5th - Max
Caitlin, George and Oliver will recite their poems next Tuesday morning at the Yr 0-2 recital. Good luck! Niamh M will be an announcer at the recital and Max will be a back-up in case anyone is away on the day.

Snow Fun

I woke up to a new day.  I looked outside and saw what looks like marshmallows floating from the sky.  It is like a winter wonderland with the snow outside.  I feel so so cool and am excited about going out and playing in the snow.  Our snowman is bigger than the one from last time it snowed.  It is  very, very FREEZING as I go out in all my ski gear. I am looking forward to having a hot chocolate to make me toasty warm!
