Week 5 in SUPER SHARP SEVEN...

Another busy week in Room 7 - the children were great in our school orchard. 
We picked up the rotten apples and the good apples....And Aisling took some of the good apples home. Her and her mum (thank you Ursula) kindly made the class an apple pie, that I cut up and we all had a small piece. 
Mrs Kirkland's pigs would of enjoyed the not so good apples. 





Reading in the library: A reminder that our library day is Thursday - most children are very good at bringing their books back. As a year 3 or 4 the children can get 2 books issued: 

This pic is for our Baseball mad kids ;) 

What a lovely cake - spoilt with 2 birthday cakes AND THEY ALL WENT!!!!! Isla was lovely and had the class sing Happy Birthday =) 

The brothers - Tommy & Angus with their yummy banana cake that also got shared with the class. 

Cam, Amelia, George, Charlie and Riley - reading their books.
Mrs Kirkland played an audio clip from the Andy Griffith's book: Just Tricking (a funny book).

 Thank you for my lovely 21st + wishes =) We had a lovely shared lunch - a good variety of food - the children were very well behaved with nice manners =)

Good ole pass the parcel - lucky there was a prize in there that all the children got to share.
