Some of us found some things really tricky but we tried really hard to be resilient and not give up. We are all going to improve so much this term.

Week 1 - Swimming!
Today was Scott Class's first swimming session. It was great to see everyone showing off the skills they remembered from last year!

Week 1 Extreme Makeover - Scott Class Edition
On the first day this term I issued Scott Class with a challenge - design our classroom in the best way for us to learn.
In pairs we created a plan for how we wanted to arrange our class. We then presented our ideas to the class and identified the best parts from each plan. The best parts were then combined to make a plan for our class.
We then rearranged just about all of the furniture in our class! We love our new layout!

Week 1 - Healthy Habits
This week we have been learning about different ways we can help to keep ourselves healthy. On Friday we had Grace our Public Health Nurse visit and remind us of how to wash our hands properly and how to blow our noses. Did you know you should blow your nose at least 5 times a day!
Grace had special germ lotion that we put on our hands and then looked at under a black-light to see where the germs like to hide. Then we practised washing our hands and had another look to check that we had got rid of all the germs.
We also did some research of our own into healthy habits and then shared these. Here are some photos of us sharing our learning.

Week 1 Term 1 - Welcome to Scott Class!
Week 1 got off to a great start in Scott Class!
We have loved our first week in our new classroom which is attached to the library. We have lots of new books at Hay Park this year and Scott Class has made the most of being so close to the library by reserving new books to read as soon as they are able to be issued.
This year the context for our learning is Challenge and this term we are looking at ourselves and our Identity. Our school value this term is resilience, which meas the ability to recover quickly from difficulties. We are really looking forward to lots of great learning this year.
We are really excited about being Y6 this year and taking on leadership roles and responsibilities in 2016! It is so great to see ALL children keen to take on these roles.
Next week is our first class assembly, please check back to see us in action!
