January

Little January
Tapped at my door today.
And said, "Put on your winter wraps,
And come outdoors to play."
Little January
Is always full of fun;
Until the set of sun.
Little January 
Will stay a month with me
And we will have such jolly times -
Just come along and see."

-  Winifred C. Marshall, January

February

"February is merely as long as is needed to pass the time until March."
-  Dr. J. R. Stockton

Arts Education - Drama

We had our last day of Drama with Lisa. We learned so much over the past five weeks and had lots and lots of fun! Thank you Lisa.

We had an Art session recently with Barbara. We were experimenting with colour and colour mixing. 

Photography

We went outdoors this week to take some photos.

Rugby Visitors

We had some important visitors to the school recently with some very impressive silverware.

Trampolining

We have started a new activity this term - trampolining! We tried it one day last year and loved it. This time we will be doing it for 5 weeks and we are so excited!! Our coaches are Jamie and Paul and we go to Cougars Gym. Week one was fantastic.

March

"The March wind roars
Like a lion in the sky,
And makes us shiver
As he passes by. 
When winds are soft,
And the days are warm and clear,
Just like a gentle lamb,
Then spring is here."

Visual Arts - Spring Showers

Special Olympics

Mihailo recently participated in a Connaught swimming competition. We all went along to support him. He won gold! Well done Mihailo.
