Wow, when we got to school today it was really, really foggy. It was so foggy we could hardly see the other side of the oval. Just before recess we went to the far end of the oval and Mrs. K took our photo.
Can you see us?
Have you had foggy days at your school? Have you had snow at your school?

Are you interested in finding out about the nervous system?
Watch our vokis and you will be surprised with all the fantastic facts we found out during Resource Based Learning. We researched the nervous system and made vokis to show you our learning.

Today we were fortunate enough to have The McDonalds Camp Quality Puppets visit the students at Craigburn.The program they bring is an educational puppet show for primary school children. They use almost life-size puppets, and show how children become more aware of the need to be caring and supportive of children who have cancer. The program also promotes anti-bullying and optimistic behaviours.
The puppets were a great way to talk about a subject that affects many families.
Many thanks to the puppeteers for providing such a wonderful program.
It was a beautiful day for the last day of Autumn.
We sat outside on the school steps and read.
We could read to ourselves or to someone. It was easy to increase our stamina because it was such a great way to read. We read our readers, books from the library and some fun readers Mrs. K found for us.
She was very happy with our reading because she could hear fluent readers, people reading with expression and lots of happy voices.
Here are some photos of room 4 being actively involved in their reading.
Hello Room 4. When you have some spare time you might like to read the 100 most commonly used words.
As Year Ones we have to be able to read the words automatically.
Were you able to read all of the words?
Why is it important to be able to read these words?
Now you might like to try these!
Today was a very special day. It is the beginning of many exciting things planned for Craigburn Primary as we celebrate it’s 30th birthday. We had an assembly for the whole school and many people attended. It’s hard to believe that the school has been here that long. There have been many wonderful additions along the way to make Craigburn an exctiting and inviting place to be.
We had Parents and Grandparents in the audience as well as past members of Governing Council. Ian Evans our local Member of Parliament also attended.
It was particularly exciting for one of the the students in our class, because his Mum has had a connection to Craigburn since it began. She was very proud to cut the birthday cake.
Mrs. Rayner helped us sing a great song to celebrate Craigburn’s birthday and you can see most of the song here.
Please watch PhotoPeach for all the fun things that happened! We loved the cup cakes that every student got at Recess time! They were delicious!
Craigburn is 30! on PhotoPeach
