Dirt

By James B, Benjamin and Michael

We are learning about dirt in Science. So far we know that dirt can be both smooth and hard. When it is raining the dirt sometimes becomes soggy. Soil is useful as it helps plants to grow and it protects the roots. Soil can be dark chocolate coloured. It usually has rocks and roots in it. Dirt is a natural material found in the earth. Dirt is considered “the skin of earth.” Dirt can be man made or natural.

Erin's spectacular piano playing!!!

Erin's spectacular piano playing!!!

By Declan & Erin

On Thursday Year 4 was lucky enough to listen to Erin playing the piano.  Erin finished a merit card and chose the ‘talent quest’ class coupon.  Erin played Gayment, Sonatina, Rhyme Time and one other song that Declan knows is called Canon. She played the piano in the music room. Erin played after lunch time and after that everyone clapped. Year 4 thought Erin is fantastic.  Miss Lee said that she is a very talented player. On the 16th of April Erin will take her piano exam.

What did you think of Erin's talent?

Bulldogs Visit

By Rebecca, Erin and James H

On the 9th of February Christ The King Primary School was lucky to have 2 NRL players from the Bulldogs to come and talk about eating healthy, drinking healthy and keeping your mind healthy.  We watched a movie about a girl doing healthy activities and eating healthy.The girl was playing sport, she was smart. She is doing a lot of activities to keep herself healthy. Then the bulldogs gave out prizes for good questions.  The bulldogs were funny and great to watch. Have a look at some of the photos we took.
