New Entrants first day at school 2017

There were some very excited children who started school in Room 5 today.



We went to explore the school. First we went to the Staff Room. It is where the teachers go to have their morning tea and lunch. The children pretended that they were the teachers!


While we were in the Staff Room, Mrs Forsyth came in and met all the new children in Room 5.



Then we went to the office to meet Taryn the Office Manager. We must be very quiet and use our manners in the office area.


After that we went to see the classrooms where the big kids are taught. Room 3 children were playing a game outside so we sneaked in and sat at their big green desks! The chairs are high. Our feet didn't reach the floor.


Next we went to check out the Adventure Playground. We can play here at playtime and lunchtime.


The Assembly Hall is near the playground. We go to the hall for School assemblies on Friday. We sing songs and receive awards at assembly.


On our way back to class, we called in to see the School Library. There are LOTS of books. We are allowed to take books home to read.


Soon it was morning tea time. We were feeling a bit hungry by then! Mrs Robertson read us a story.


We read books and played some games after morning tea, and before too long, it was lunchtime. We sat with our buddies to eat lunch. We liked exploring the school in the morning.
