Good-bye Mrs McAdam

Today was Mrs McAdam's last day. The Bachelors made her a special card. We all dressed in red, white and blue mufti. We will miss having her at our school. 

Have a Happy Easter everyone and enjoy the holiday break. See you in 2 weeks.

Healthy Dinner Plates

Here are our finished plates. We used paper strips to make the mats. It was really hard to weave the mats. We cut out our healthy food using coloured paper and tried to make it 3D, then we stuck it onto our plates.

Commenting on Blogs

If you've never commented on a blog before - here are some helpful hints. There's some more suggestions in this week's newsletter. 
The older children have their own blog page on Kidblog. Commenting on Kidblog is very straight forward - just click on COMMENTS and leave a meaningful, positive comment along with your name, then click submit. Your comment will usually be emailed to the teacher who will then publish it. Some blogs are closed to members only. Talk to the teacher to ask if you can be emailed a link to the blog.

Thanks to all the parents and friends who have been leaving comments on our class blog. The children are really excited to read them.

Commenting on a Blogger blog - 

1. Click on the No comments at the bottom of the post

2. Write your comment in the box, then select from drop down box (black arrow) where it says comment as: 

3. It's best to choose Anonymous, then sign your first name only or another signature eg Jack's mum or
Kim's Gran (this is a safe way to keep children from being identified by surnames) You maybe asked to copy the verification code too.

4. In most cases your comment won't be published immediately. An email will be sent to the teacher who will moderate the comment and decide if it's suitable to be published.
