Jump Rope For Heart Day

Next Thursday (26th August) it is Jump Rope for Heart Day. Two groups of people from our class are doing a presentation. I am one of them. If you aren't doing a presentation then still keep on skipping. On Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday Mr H is away so if the reliever doesn't tell us to practice just remind him politely if he could let us practice.  

Tapa Art

This Term we have been doing some Tapa art with objects or patterns that we wanted to draw. The fun part was we got to scrunch it up to make it look like the paper wasn't paper from a factory and instead from a Pacific Island process.
