We had so much fun with the parachute today. Last week we tried it at the beach and we thought it would be great to get out again. There were many colours and we laughed when we ran under it.

"It as colourful" said D'Shaun
"I was happy" said Louise

The Birdies went to the Beach

On Tuesday the 24th of February, the Birdies along with the rest of Rowandale School went to the beach. We had an awesome time splashing about in the water, playing on the sand and exploring on the playground.

Here are some of our pictures.

Today we did some great writing about what we need to take to the beach. We all used our sounds to write the letters that we know.

We also got our book bags today. Please read with us every night. For some tips check out Mrs Tolly reading with us. 

Last week we drew a self portrait. We decided to focus on each body part and develop our skills. We started with our eyes. We talked about different eyes and used mirrors to look at our own. Take a look. Don't forget to check out our instagram- http://instagram.com/year0rowandale/

This was our first try. Some of us drew dots for eyes. After looking hard we discovered that there is lots of detail to our eyes.

We have eye lashes 

 Our eyes are oval.

 We have a eyebrow

 We have a pupil in the middle of our eye 

 We had to take our time.

  Use the mirror.

Today we had our branding assembly. We were brave and went on stage to sing our class song.

We had our first swimming lesson today. It was cold but we had fun. Take a look at our day.

 Writing tall sticks outside for handwriting. 

We went to visit the pigs !

We met Hettie and Percy. We had to feed them and pick up their poo. We put on gloves and got spades. The pigs were hard and had fur. Take a look.
