Children's Work

Here are some stories written by the children. We did a lot of talking together and planning of our story along the format of another story called "3 Wishes". They were aloud to change the characters and the situations, but they had to follow the same pattern of events. These children did this very well and used some great language features to enhance their writing. I hope you enjoy them and can leave some nice feedback.

Well here it is!!! Hot off the press, here are some of the finished re-written "Jack and the Beanstalk" stories. We have worked very hard on these stories. They are based on the story of Jack and the Beanstalk, but we have changed a few things. We have written them according to the way we want you to read them as we have learnt a few tricks about reading with expression this term. So here are our stories. We hope you enjoy reading them as much as we have enjoyed writing them.

Term 2

Well, we all made it back from our holidays and we are "diving head first" into term 2. Literally! We are swimming twice a week this term, and having heaps of fun! We are also doing PMP (Perpetual Motor Skills) so by Friday afternoon, we are all very ready for our social, low key afternoon of Developmental.

Unfortunately we did not win the Hurricanes competition, but the winners were from down the road, so it's not too bad.

We will keep you posted with what is happening this term. Keep an eye out for our updates.
