Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays

Have a very Merry Xmas from Mrs Toohey.  You have all been very good this year so I know Santa will be good to you all.  Enjoy your holidays and take care.  It has been so wonderful to teach you this year!  See you next year.

                                          We have been decorating a gingerbread house.

                                          William was excited to get an early present from his friends.
Love Mrs Toohey

Merry Merry Christmas!

Biscuit Decorating and Shared Lunch

Today Lauren and Melanie came in and decorated cupcakes and christmas biscuits with Room 9.  We had so much fun using the different icing, sprinkles and lollies to decorate them all.  In the afternoon we wrapped them up in little bags and put a christmas bell and stickers on.  I hope you all enjoyed eating and sharing your biscuits with your families.  Last week Loretta came in and made christmas cards with the children.  These looked so professional - thanks heaps Loretta and I hope the children have written in them for someone special!
A massive thank you from all of Room 9 to Lauren and Melanie for providing us with all the amazing goodies today and Loretta for the cards and craft things.
I would also like to thank all the parents for the gorgeous food for our shared lunch.  The children certainly had a good size lunch today and enjoyed eating the leftovers in the afternoon.  I hope they still ate their tea tonight!

Book Parade / Bouncy Castle / Christmas Party

These will probably be the last few movies that will be published on Room 9's blog for 2011! We have had such fun at school over the last week.  We had our book parade and Room 9 children dressed up as some awesome characters! Top job! We had a wonderful christmas party at Lucy's house on Sunday.  Santa arriving was just amazing and he even dished out some gifts to all the good wee children! On Monday we had a massive bouncy castle at our school.  What fantastic fun this was - some children in Room 9 went through 8 times!! Mrs Allen went through 3 times and I was tired! We have a couple more day left at school and we still have fun activities planned.  We hope you have enjoyed our blog.  Have a super Happy Christmas and a well deserved break for all!! xxx

Celebration Day

Tomorrow we have a big celebration day at school.  Please remember to wear your house colours! What a fantastic time at the Room 9 christmas party! Thanks to Pip, Tom, Lucy and Jacob for hosting us all at your house - we loved it!! Photos to come.  Room 9's shared lunch is on Tuesday - please bring a small plate of lunchtime food.  See you tomorrow :)

Awesome work from Jacob and Hannah

Congratulations to Jacob and Hannah for getting our certificates this week.  Jacob has been doing wonderful Maths work and Hannah has been displaying our school values with pride. Keep up the super work!

Christmas Fun

Today Mrs Sutherland told Room 8 and 9 the story of Rudolf the Red Nose Reindeer.  She told it to us orally - this means she didn't use a book, she spoke.  We made our own antlers and painted our button noses red! Too cute Room 9!
