Fundraising for World Vision

Rooms 8, 9, 11, 22 raised over $1,091.50 from their bake sale over the past two days.  An amazing effort.  A big thanks to the parents for helping their children in the kitchen to whip up such yummy goodies.  The money will be split between our charities - Cure Kids, Cancer Society, Make a Wish and World Vision.

Today Room 9 used the $190 we raised for the class to purchase "smiles gifts" from World Vision.  Here is what we decided to buy for families in need:

Pencils

School stationery packs

A piglet 

- provides natural fertiliser and can produce up to 20 piglets a year 

helping a family to generate income

2 goats, 2 chickens and training for families on how to care for their animals

- provides nourishing milk and eggs for a family

Zoomin In on Our Production Collages

Production Collages

Our production collages look awesome!  We're very proud of them and they look great on the backgrounds painted for our production.

First we sketched ourselves in costume and tried to get movement so we weren't just standing there doing nothing!  Then we cut out this sketch and used it as a pattern to cut out the parts of our body out on colour paper.  Eventually lots of cutting and glueing led to our amazing finished collages.

Each one has been photocopied and backed on coloured card for calendar art which you can view at the office prior to payment.

Our class wall display looks like this.
