Our Buddy class Room 13

We had our first Buddy class time with room 13 on Friday. We will be getting our buddy class time every second week. We now know our own buddies and we are looking forward to getting together!




Amazing swimmers in Room 17

The new year has started and we started our swimming lessons. Since the beginning of the year some of us were not so keen swimmers and need some encouragement. And some of us were just can't get enough time to swim. I'm very please to inform you all that our class is all in the level two to four in swimming. It means that we can confidently put our faces into water, kicking legs, blowing bubbles, and stroking with arms four times then breaths in the water, etc. What a great progress has been made in the short time!
Here are some of the moments in the swimming lessons.




The First Just a Minute Speakers

BL shared with us some of the special photos which were taken by her grandparents from South Africa. She told us about the wild dog which is close to extinct. And she showed us the biggest elephant that her ground-parents rode on. What an amazing photos!!!
AL brought his collection of 'Trashies'. We all get to touch and feel since he was very keen to share with us.
Great start and showing positive attitude with confidence in speaches from both speakers. Thank you for sharing interesting topics with us.
Let's looking forward to the next speakers!
