News from Room One

Here is our news from Room One this week

Paint the Earth

The children painted ceramic tiles and learned about the porous nature of the medium and they are looking forward to seeing how the colours will become much brighter after they have been fired in the kiln. They will adorn the area outside our new block. 

What do the children do at playtime?

I took my camera out with me on playground duty and snapped some pictures of the children playing. 

Here is Luke in goal.
