Incredible Mission Day

Incredible Mission Day

Mission day is the best day we have ever had.

Mission day is all about learning about different countrys.

Mission day is all about dressing up and going round to different countrys which isnt real.

Mission day is so much fun I bet you want to be here.

There are three reasons why mission day is the best day at school.

Firstly Mission day is a day where you can try some things that other countries do.

You can go to different classes and there different countries where you can dress up as anything and learn new things.

Secondly Mission day is a day that we do crafts from different countries.

When you go to different classes you do craft there. We made Taco-Maracas in Mexico, Babushka dolls in Russia and origami in Japan.

Thirdly you can play things, do craft and even watch some things about the country.

We watched a video on Russia, played Cricket with Mr L & did some Japanese dancing with Miss F.

I undoubtedly believe that Mission Day is the best for everyone because ou can try some things that other countrys do, do crafts from different cultures and even watch some things about the country.

Don't you wish you could have come to Mission Day?

If you like something colourful then you will like these amazing cookies. We made them a few weeks ago to thank the teachers for their help in Seussical. (Our teacher found the recipe on the internet...it's in American though, so she helped us to translate it)
 The colours are yellow ,pink,green and blue but it doesnt matter what colour you use.

This is the recipe for the rainbow cookies.



3/4 cup butter
3/8 cup cream cheese
1 cup sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla
2 and 3/4 c flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
assorted food colouring

1. In a bowl put cream butter , cream cheese and sugar until it is fluffy. Add egg and vanilla. Beat until smooth.

2.In a bowl combine flour, baking powder,and salt.Add dry ingredients to the creamed mixture.Stir until soft dough forms.Divide dough into quarters.Tint each with a different food colouring.Wrap in plastic and chill for two hours.

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.
