Discovery Time - Making Bridges and Ramps





In Room Seven we had an exciting two afternoons making bridges and ramps using different types of materials and equipment. We were working in small groups so we had to use our listening skills and co-operation. We had to share and take turns.
We had to find out what materials would make the best bridge and ramp for our toy car.
We enjoyed working together and had lots of fun!

The Life and Times of Q Bear in Room 12


Q Bear is helping room 12 with their 'Skills for Growing' programme. Q Bear helped us set up our class treaty at the beginning of the year. Q Bear reminds us to be a safe, caring and sharing class at all times.

When Q Bear catches us being good we get a Q Bear card. Every Friday 3 Q bear cards are pulled out and those people get a reward from the goodies box.


Q Bear is helping us remember how to work successfully as a group. We listen to each other's ideas and work TOGETHER.
Q Bear joins us for happy occasions and celebrations. We remember to share with Q Bear also, look at all the party food he has! View other photos of Q Bear working with room 12 on our power point .

Who Let The Dogs Out?




During the junior production 'Over The Moon' Room 11 performed an energetic dance to a medley of songs about dogs. We had lots of fun! We especially liked dressing up and having face paint on.
