There's 'snow' School today! HeeHee

Hi everybody. Today we are in a class of 3(Lucia Misaki and Samuel). This is because most of the public transportation is not working due to the recent snow fall. Luckily school is still open. Since there are only a few children we will have a fun time! We made our own time table for today.
Hopefully see you all tomorrow!!

From Samuel, Misaki, Lucia and Ms Deamer

Grade 5 Paris Adventure

Today, we braved the sunny but freezing weather and headed out to solve riddles around Paris. We got quite cold at first, but warmed up nicely at the Lourve. We did few activities at each place, had snack, took photos, had lunch and even got to play kickball at Champs de Mars.  Here are the riddles we solved and the photos are below:

Like a grey night owl, I turn my bright head,

Four legs I do have, yet I cannot tread

I am loved by day but I prefer the night

As every hour I wear a coat of shimmering light

I’m your grand old lady and I float on the Seine

My passengers are winged monsters, women and men

Sun through my round portholes will show

Ancient stories made of a broken rainbow

Folders I pass and papers I stamp

I say yes, no and maybe to a park or street lamp

In this grand old building important decisions I make

As I watch others play on a frozen lake

As the river of time flows gently past

I pick up some pieces so they will last

A rock, a head, a smile, maybe a mask

All kept in my safe pentahedron of glass

I’m like a stone bridge in the heart of a star

I remember harsh battles both near and far

I hope that this memory will help to increase

The desire for all to always have peace

Near the park, there’s a big red machine

It doesn’t need fuel, but children it seems

Beeping, clicking again and again

Children go home with a big full brain

The whole grade 5 enjoying the sun

New Student Council!

I'm happpy and a little bit sad that we have to re-elect a new Studen Council. The Term 1 Student council did a fantastic job!

THREE CHEERS!!! HIP HIP HOORAY; HIP HIP HOORAY; HIP HIP HORRAY!

However, I'm very sure the next Student Council will be just as great!

Here's a little video advertisement I made to encourage the primary students to run for election.

Hello 2013

The New Year has bought us new term and a new student, Sam. Welcome! Not only was it his first week, but it was also his birthday, so good old Sam had a big first week.

We also started our Revision lessons for Maths and Science. We made a little 3D Object museum with labels that use big words like perpendicular and parallel. Yeah!

Goodbye 2012

Whoopsies! The last part of last term was busy, so no time to blog. Here's a long overdue update of December:
