Soccer Gala Day

Awsome Soccer Gala Day



On Tuesday our class and the other Year 3 & 4 class went to a Cottees Soccer Gala Day!

At the soccer gala day there were lots of schools that we had to vs.

There were lots of different teams as well as other schools.

These are some team names rasberry raptors, gubble bummers, tropical tornados, pine lime piarates, blueberry bandits, lemon crushers, coola crazies and orange ogres.

There were boys teams, girls teams and mixed teams.

All day we played soccer apart from recess and lunch.

We were on rasberry raptors and our bib colour was hot pink. We had so much fun!

Coola crazies bib colour was green, lemon crushers bib was yellow, blueberry bandits bib was blue, gubble bummers bib was purple, orange ogres bib was orange, pine lime pirates bib was light green and tropical tornados bib was gold.

At the soccer gala day 2 of the Jets players came and talked to us.

At recess the 2 Jets players signed things like t shirts and autographs.

It was an awesome day!

National Young Leaders day.

On Monday the Junior School Leaders (including us!) went to Sydney for the Nataional Young Leaders Day.

National young leaders day was about how to be a good leader and "why should I follow you?"

Our first speaker was Mike Martin, he told us how to be a good influence.


It is bad to follow a leader because you are scared of what will happen if you don't.

it is good to follow a leader that you trust and someone who is a good example.

The next speaker was Greg Mullin.

He told us that to be a good leader you have to be yourself and believe.

Nothing is impossible and leadership is about people.


Another speaker was Kurt Feanley.

Is a famous wheel chair racer and even climbed the kakodatrack.

He said " help others and be kind. After climbing up the track a friend set up a tent and sat him inside, half an hour later he came back with a warm coke bottle and some twisties.

Then Jessica Watson spoke to us.

When she was 16 she sailed around the world and now is a well known sailor.

when she was young she was scared to touch water and could not swim.

She told us to face our fears.

Finally we had Talia Fowler.

She won so you think you can dance and the American version.

She said to us " to be a good leader you have to be a good role model."

National Young Leaders Day was Supercalafragelisticexpialidocious!

Musings on the 28th March

On the 28th march, The Discovery class did maths and literacy groups. It was very fun. At maths we learned about polygons.literacy groups is a type of work to teach you how to write words properly and we also do something called SRA. SRA is an activity to test how good you are at changing words instead of using easy words like look using hard words like see or saw.
We have some special people from year four that are student leaders and they have gone on a trip to Sydney with our teacher, so we've got a music teacher for the day.

Seussical


I think Seussical is a good musical and I think more kids should participate in more musicals.

Firstly Seussical teachs kids to be confident

It develops kids' singing and acting skills.

Next Seussical teaches kids to act and sing in front of a crowd.

Kids need to rehearse in front of the other kids and perform in front of a lot of people on the night..

Finally seussical is a great musical and kids will love acting in it.

Kids need to act to get their self confident up.
I definitely believe kids will love to participate in more musicals.
