Today we celebrated Harmony Day here at school. The SRC (Student Council) organised the day: we dressed in yellow or orange and sold yellow and orange fruit at recess and lunch.
Everyone wrote a little bit about harmony and what it means to them. You can read more of what each person has written on their own blog.
Today is Harmony Day
When children’s smiles are as bright as a sunshine ray.
Today we work together
To make the world much better.
Where children have some fun,
Dressed in colours like the sun.
Friendship is celebrated today
Where lots of children like to play.

Harmony
Harmony means peaceful.
Everyone is cheerful.
It is when you share.
It is when you wear yellow and orange.
We work together to make a fun day.
We are all like bright suns.
We are happy as can be
We all chat like good friends do.
We all sell yellow and orange fruit and orange ribbons too!
At the end of the day we are as cheerful as can be!!

Rebecca,
Our Otter, called Sandy, is a gift from Sandaig Primary school in Glasgow, Scotland. Our teacher, Mrs P, left a toy kangaroo with the Sandaig class when she visited earlier in the year.The two toys will be blogging to each other as we learn all about each others school and country.

Harmony day was really fun. We all enjoyed it even Sandy. We all dressed up in either yellow orange or muftiy. We sold orange and yellow food. Then after lunch we went back into our classes and, our teacher, Mrs.p, told us that we had to make up a poem about Harmony day. We all sat and thought hard and finnally one after another we started coming up with really good things.

Harmony day sounds fun. The colours look cool, yellow is one of school colours. Why do you wear orange and yellow?
Sandy looks nice in her ribbon.
Skiipy sends her love.
Bye, we will read you soon.

Harmony Day was pretty fun. We raised $324.55 from Harmony Day, we use this money to get more equipment. I had fun selling the oranges. Lots of people chose to wear mufty than orange and yellow. It was so hard to think of a good poem for Harmony Day, but I managed.

Hello 07 Allstars,
We’ve just heard that our new topic for next term is Australia! We would love to hear what important information you think we should know about. Have you ever studied Australia as a topic?
We also plan to do some Aboriginal art …. we’ll post some pictures on our blog and you can tell us what you think!

Hello Carronshore,
How exciting that you are studying Australia. Here are some ideas to get you started – we will have another think later and get back to you!
Settlement – who & when
Landmarks
Australian Aborigines
Aussie slang
Aussie animals
Celebrations
Can’t wait to see your Aboriginal Artworks.
We are studying “Identity” this year too.
What do you know about Australia already?

Hi AllStars! We don’t know very much yet (only what we’ve learned from your blog!). We are going to begin learning about Australia after our Easter break. Thank you so much for this advice – a great start for us!
