Duffy Show


The Duffy Theater Troupe treated us to a fun filled hour highlighting the importance of reading and looking after our precious earth. After the show the children could ask the actors questions and talk with the actors. Room 11 was loved having a photo with them.








Today we watched a Duffy Show at the hall. First we started with a song. There were three actors Two girls and a boy. They acted a story about a big storm and two super heroes saving the world.   By  Kaito



                                           

There were costumes like a fire, storm clouds and mother earth and they wore superhero costumes. Duffy was a superhero. It was funny, like big ,big, big laughter. Everyone like it .It was the biggest show in our school. By Christian

Model Farms

We spent a month creating our own model farms 

We made barns to hold hay.

We made food troughs


Some of our farms had  a stearm going through them
We created paddocks with fences 

We had chickens on our farms 

We invited other classes to view our farms. 




We knew animals needed water so we made water troughs.




We learnt how to draw many different farm animals.
