1.Kilometer club

This week we started our annual Kilometer club activity at recess and lunch. Students run the track collecting a popsicle stick for each lap which is recorded in class in the hopes of completing a half or full marathon over a three week period. Students who complete a half marathon receive a certificate and those that complete a full marathon get a marathon t-shirt! It was awesome to see the students enthusiasm and dedication towards completing their laps each day, nice to see many staff running along side the kids as well.

2. Garden

Finally the sun is showing itself a little more frequently and the temperatures are warming just enough for us to be able to get into the garden to start exploring, weeding and planting. We love our school garden as it is an extension of our learning space out into the natural world. Here Mrs. O’Keefe’s class are scientifically exploring their surroundings :O)
