We also visited Carronshore School – remember Mrs Vass and her class??

Well, Mrs Vass took us to visit with Primary 5LW and they had heaps of questions to ask about Australia.

Mrs Vass made a (very embarrassing) video for P5LW and you can see it on their blog here.

They also have some new pets to show you!

Why not leave some welcoming comments?

Here are some photos I took at Carronshore:

Hello everyone – well, school has started for another year and I know that we will have a great time exploring, discovering and learning together.

I am still over here in the UK – England to be specific.

It’s been a busy month for me – meeting some of our blogging friends and looking at how technology is being used in Nursery Schools (little kids), Primary Schools (like us) and Secondary Schools (high Schools). Lots of different sorts of ways of using technology creatively and excitingly. Can’t wait to get back and try some of these things out.

Have a look at what Mrs Dyer and I have been up to on these presentations made while we were visiting!

This presentation was when we visited Easter Carmuirs Primary – who ’s blog is called “Take A Look Inside” why not pop over and leave a comment on their blog?

Nounours, the little French teddy from Walker Road School in Scotland is going home

He has been visiting the AllStars – seeing the sights of Sydney Australia, and even meeting some of the wildlife too!

But now its time for him to head back “up and over” to Scotland – so goodbye Nounours, we have had lots of fun with you.

We will all miss you – boo hoo!

A great big AllStar and Australian welcome

to our special Scottish visitor –

Nounours!

We can’t wait to show Nounours all about our Australian heritage and the special things about our city of Sydney.

We are looking forward to Nounours learning about Australia and the AllStars too

Nounours has already met Sandy our Scottish otter, as well as Koko Koala and Kanga & Roo. Lots of fun is on our way!

Our little Scottish mascot, Sandy the Otter (from the students @ Sandaig Primary School, class P7S), has been with us in Australia for one year (officially it was on the 9th March). We felt that we should observe this special milestone and so we partied   :)     :)     :)

Everyone brought in their favourite soft toys so that Sandy would have lots of friends to help him celebrate, and people also bought along some lollies, cakes, drinks and food.

We added some music and had a fun afternoon!

PS - Sandy has her own blog too, pop over and have a look

To all of our blogging friends ..

A heartfelt and HUGE thank you to “you”  – everyone who reads, enjoys and comments on our blog.

We have learnt so much this year, and it is because of “you”. We have blogged because of “you”, we have reflected because of “you” we have shared the events, the fun, the learning, the laughs, the thinking, the working and the people who work in and visit our class.

“You” have made a wonderful difference to how we learn in our room.

“You” have helped us think about our learning, how we do things, why we do things, and how we can learn and work even better and harder.

“You” have shared so much with us – thank you for your comments, your thoughts, your questions, your ideas, your blogs and most importantly your friendship.

We are on holidays now so our blog may be a little idle – but we will be back again in February.

Until then – keep on blogging

Due to sickness and problems with our school server, the AllStars have been pretty quiet on-line over the last few weeks.

However, things are back looking “up” and we are aiming to get some posts happening here in these last three weeks before the end of our school year – and some well deserved Summer holidays!

Come and have a look at the fantastic Voices of the World site.

This is where we join with over 40 other classes to share our voices and artwork in fun ways.

We are in the middle of our November task, but have a look at what we got up to in September and October!

Here they are – our first taste of this year’s camp.

Looks like fun …………
