Ms. Jocelyn's Last Day



Ms. Jocelyn's Last Day at Mataranka School



We had a great day today!  First we did our usual Morning Message.  Cameran Dehne was Special Helper so he did the attendance and helped us review our Blue Words.

Then it was Investigations: it was I-Pad Thursday, but we painted, made a big card and some great gifts for Ms. J, played dress-up and created things with the blocks too.  We had storytime, enjoyed Starfall, listened to a story on the Smart Board and danced to our video from last year. It was a great morning.

Then we climbed on the bus and headed to Bitter Springs for a picnic.
We ate the healthy food our parents had packed for us.
Then we explored the area with Ms. Beki.  


After lunch we played games.  We played Hide-and-Seek, using five different trees.  

Next it was capture the flag,  

We ended the day with a story and a group hug at the Banyan Tree in the park.  It was a great day and a wonderful send-off.  Miss is really going to miss the  Transition/year1/2 class.  What a great bunch!

Tea at the Manor




From the Mataranka Cool School News!

We went to the Manor yesterday.  We did a lot of things.  We ate lunch.  We had so much fun eating desert.  Kash did not like his milkshake.  It was too sweet. 

We played Tip.



We played parachute games. I liked the parachute.   



We were feeding the barramudi. It was fun. 


We climbed the tree.  When we got up on the tree, there were ants and we didn't like the ants. 





It was fun.
