Year 0/1 Running - Maddox got 1st, Kaci got 2nd, and Kian got 3rd

Congratulations everyone!

Yesterday Room 12 wore their old clothes to school so they could paint their aboriginal art onto their tin cans.  We used exterior paint, so we didn't want to ruin our gorgeous uniforms.  In the end we were so careful that our clothes were fine - yay!

Putting the base colour on our cans.

Gorgeous weather for outside painting!

Making our aboriginal paintings (using dots).

Our next step is to figure out how to attach the cans together so they make a totem pole.  

That will get our brains thinking!!!!

Our wonderful teacher aide, Barb Vogel, helps out in Room 12 for an hour in the mornings.
Here she is reading to Kian and Toby.
