Room 3 - Pt England School

 Last week the Year 8s went on camp to  One Big Adventure . Here are some of the highlights. 

This week we asked the Year 7 & 8 children some questions about the adults in our school. Their responses were very, very interesting. Check out our game called...The Moment of Truth!!  

 It has been an interesting start to the year to say the least. We have had a revolving door of people coming and going due to isolation periods. The great news is everyone is rolling with the punches and dealing with the constant changes really well.  We look forward to sharing what we have been up to on this blog, so bookmark it and be sure to visit from time to time. Oh, and don't forget to leave a comment here and there. We would love to hear from you.

As he was walking he heard the sound again he walked faster and faster and soon his walk turned in to  a sprint he tripped on a rock and fell on his four knees and his head hit the hard, compact ground. He became unco...

B ack before men would rule, all living things were at war. It was a scary world at that time, and they had to keep everything to themselves. The ants used to be small and weak. They would have the hardest time whenever they came across the big, wild animals. Everyday was a struggle for them since they had to find food for their colony. Their colony was so big that it had as many people that a city can contain. One day, a brave, unafraid group of ants went out to find food early in the morning. They thought all the animals would be asleep. They snuck behind the tall, overgrown grass, and tried to stay as silent as possible. "There it is, the food!" Shouted one ant quite loudly. "Shhh, you're going to wake the animals up." whispered the ant leader. They tried lifting the giant, heavy seed they claimed as their food. No matter how much they puffed and tried, they still can't lift the seed up. "I give up!" Screamed the same ant from bef...
