Jump Jam with Brett Fairweather

Thursday, March 28, 2019 No comments
Today we had a wonderful time meeting the famous Jump Jam King, Brett Fairweather.  We loved dancing along with him.  Trials will be held next week for the George Street Normal School Junior Jump Jam Team.  Only 15 children from Year 2-4 will be chosen but Mrs McCulley will be crossing her fingers that some of the students from Room 4 will be in the team!




Buddy Time - Zebras

On Thursday afternoon, our big buddies from Room 9 helped us to make zebras out of paper plates.  It was lots of fun!




Jump Jam

On Friday, we will be meeting the famous Brett Fairweather and learning how to Jump Jam.  The children know to come along to school tomorrow in comfortable clothes and suitable shoes (please remind them parents if they forget!)

Buzzy had a fantastic time with Zara in the weekend.  He went skateboarding, played in the treehouse, jumped on the trampoline and went paddle boarding at Warrington Beach.  Wow!  He will need to rest up after such an action-packed weekend!

Amelia took great care of Buzzy last weekend.  Buzzy got to go to the beach, eat chips and pancakes, go swimming, make new friends, go out to a cafe, watch a movie and even go to a disco!  What a lucky bee!

Lydia and Zara read an interesting book about 'Making Mini Movies'.  They followed the instructions in the book and made their own movie and screen using paper and a tissue box.  What a great effort girls!
