The Power of Persuasion!

Last Term Room 3 wrote to Mrs Frances-Rees in an attempt to persuade her to fix up the patchy grass over by the Cameron Street side of the school property.
As it happens, the grass was due for a bit of attention in the last holidays.  When we returned this term we found that the ground had been scoured and grass had been resown! 
The published writing can be read in our classroom Library corner.  Well done to all the students for applying their great ideas and writing skills!
Here is a picture of us in front of the grass that is being repaired.

Fire Truck

When a heater in Room 10 exploded earlier this term the fire brigade were called.  The incident was quickly sorted- but not before Mrs McCallum could take Room 3 out to look at the Fire Engine and talk to the Firemen...

Epals

Hi everyone,

I have emailed the children the email addresses for their epals today. 
If they log in to the epals website (http://www.epals.com/) they will see the email from me in their inbox.  They will then be able to email their epals.

The Epals are from  a Year 3 class at Newman Catholic School in Mason City, Iowa, in the United States.

Happy emailing!
