As we head into Christmas, I would like to construct wooden reindeer in class. In order to be able to do this, I need your help!
To make these reindeer (see pictures) we need wooden logs (diameter 5cm max) or corks (for miniature reindeer). The wood needs to be 5-10cm long (depending on how big you want the body of the reindeer.
CORKS WOULD BE IDEAL!
We can do all the cutting and drilling at school, so as long as we have the wood we should be able to give it a go! We will find all the sticks we need around the school.
If you have anything helpful at home, please bring it in this week so we can give it a try!
I bought a small Christmas Tree for the classroom today. The tree is tiny, so don’t get your hopes up!
If anyone has a favourite decoration laying around the house, bring it in and we can add it to the tree. If anyone has a bigger tree, they can bring that in too!
This term we have been looking at Government and how it is formed.
We are going to have a class election, with the winner to take the class for an activity of their choice, for a period of one hour.
Over the next couple of days we will form parties within the class, and run an election campaign. We will have speeches, posters, how to vote cards and anything else to get the voters onside!
If you would like to be considered for one of our party leaders, you must let me know tomorrow.
You must include:
Your name, activity planned and a brief overview or description of your activity. This may be changed later.
As we discussed in class, you must be well organised, can run a small group, confident and responsible, have sensible (BUT FUN!) ideas, team skills, leadership skills and be prepared to lose an election (and join in the rest of the fun!).

Check out the pictures below from this year’s Lapathon. We had a great morning, and some very tired and sore bodies afterwards!
We worked out that LA 19 ran a total of 80.1km (267 laps of the oval) in approximately 40 minutes! A great effort! Everyone was surprised to see the distance they ran once we worked it out. GREAT WORK!
