We had a wonderful afternoon telling the story of The three billy goats. Our shout out was for Mekaal who was an excellent troll. The children were goats or the troll and remembered what they had to say. Well done F2BP.

A sunny reading Tuesday
Pride of Plover
Working in a coal mine
Today, 5S were shocked to learn that Victorian children as young as four had no choice but to work up to 12 hours a day, 6 days a week in mines to earn money and support their families.
In order to consider the hard work and suffering they experienced, we discussed the different jobs available to people in the mines and the gruelling work they had to undertake. We role played these jobs in groups then got back together to write about how we felt.
We all came away feeling really sorry for our ancestors who had to work this hard at such a young age. I want to praise the class for their sympathy and engagement with this lesson as it was tough to hear about.

Dressing up day
Our favourite characters – dress up day!
It’s been so lovely to see everyone dressed up as their favourite characters today, and talk about our favourite books. Well done to Conor and James who won our prizes this morning for the best homemade costumes, and to Astral and Maria who won this afternoon. Well done to everybody who worked to on their handmade costumes, they were all amazing!
