Safe journeys - Fireman Matt visits

This week we had a visit from Matt Evans, a fireman. He talked to us about fire safety.  

We learnt what to when there is a fire. 

We need to get down, get low and get out fast! We get down because 'Fresh air is down there.' 

We shout "Fire, fire, fire!"

When we get out we need to meet at our safe meeting place, our letter box. 


We also learnt that we need smoke alarms in;

• every bedroom

• the hallway

• the lounge.  

We checked our own house to see where our smoke alarms were. We think 'smoke alarms save lives.'

Safe Journeys - Police visit

We have been learning about people in our community who help to keep us safe.  


We had a visit at school from 
Constable Hodder, a police officer.  
He taught us how to cross the road safely.

We need to stop, look and listen before we cross.  This is room 9 practising in the hall then crossing the road.

Making Vegetable Soup

This term we have been learning about ''Growing Things'' and 'Winter' so Room 9a combined them and decided to make yummy vegetable soup.
Each child brought a vegetable to school to put in our soup.
We talked about the vegetables first then we washed our hands.
We washed, peeled and chopped our vegetables and put them into Mrs Newman's crock pot.

Then we put the crock pot in the staff room and turned it on. Our soup cooked all day.

The next day Mrs Newman turned the soup back on to heat it up again.

We read the story 'Stone Soup' and ate our vegetable soup for lunch. 

It was delicious and full of yummy vegetables.

Paper Airplanes

Yesterday Lawrence was a fantastic leader in Room 9. He taught us how to make a paper airplane. We had to follow the instructions step by step. When we finished we went out to the courts and flew them. We had a competition to see who's flew the furthest. Ethan and Hayden won!
