We got to 100 marbles in our class rewards jar this week and had a class party on Thursday afternoon.
The marbles are rewarded, in particular, for great teamwork as a class, and showing respect and support for each other.
The children wanted do play a Kahoot and make pancakes. They were extremely yummy with Nutella and sprinkles!
Last week we had the Duffy Theatre perform a play called Duffy's Bubble Trouble. It was about two children staying at their Aunties on a farm during lockdown.

Last week Duffy came to the our school to do a play.
Duffy and Scruffy were stuck on Aunt's farm lock down. First duffy was playing the guitar.
Then they started the play.
Duffy tries to milk Moo Moo Molly. She gets very sad and hurts Duffy, then
Scruffy throws Duffy in the chicken coop.
Aunty talked to the chickens,
Then Duffy's teacher called on zoom but she was on mute. She did not know she was
on mute when she realized she un mute.
Then one of the school students was playing a round and left the call
they realized it was Jason. The teacher gave Duffy a book to read.
But Duffy did not like that book. So Duffy faked the wifi problems.
Duffy quickly got to work.
Then scruffy were putting Duffy on snap chat. Duffy got really annoyed when
the book arrived from Duffy's mother. Scruffy hand sanitised the book.
Then Duffy got so annoyed and threw the tablets out the window, into the water.
Then Duffy's mum told them to do jobs so they can earn new tablets.
Duffy went for a walk to calm down and then fell in the hole then he saw moa bones.
Just when Duffy needed company Bess came and his sister was saying stuff then
Duffy shouted Scruffy and Duffy got pulled out with a rope that was connected to the tractor.
And they took the bones to the museum and they realized. That it was a thousand years old.
They became famous. THE END
My favorite part was when Duffy fell in the hole. I liked the way we could see the hole.
Here is a video of the Google Drawings we did over photos of our own faces. Everyone had to be very resilient as this took a lot of patience and careful work. And sometimes you had to restart parts you had drawn over again.
We are so lucky here at Hornby Primary School that are school pool is heated. It has been as warm as 27 degrees. That means even on cooler days we can swim. We even had a swimming session in a warm light rain! The sessions are half an hour and we have a lesson where the focus is swimming skills, then water safety skills. At the end we have 5-10 minutes free time to enjoy the water with our friends, and practice what we want.
