Fifth Class
Ms Quirke’s 5th Class
Room 14 have been learning about materials the past two weeks and we investigated different recyclable materials to chose the most suitable to construct bridges in our groups. The requirements were that the bridges were self-supporting and at least 15cm high and 20cm long. Some groups had to adapt their design when they tested their bridge and found out that they didn’t meet the brief!
Christmas Play
5th Class prepared a fantastic version of The Grinch which was enjoyed by both the school and the parents.
G’DAY MATE!
In Room 14 we have been learning all about Australia. Some of the boys have put what they’ve learned into Powerpopint displays to share with the class. Please enjoy the boy’s excellent work.
