Happy New Year Again!
Kung Hei Fat Choy
Many lucky AllStars had the opportunity to celebrate another New Year last week. It was the Lunar (or Chinese) New Year and lots of special celebrations took place to welcome in the Year of the Rat. Parades with Dragons and fireworks, yummy food and even red envelopes with money inside!
In our class, some people dressed up, some received money from relatives, some visited temples, and others had parties. Even Sandy dressed up in a Chinese outfit and joined in the fun
Here are some photos of us enjoying the celebrations!
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
Last week we had a visit from the “Keep Australia Beautiful” council and we learnt all about our rubbish and the wide world of waste!
We found out about
- landfill
- bacteria
- chemicals
- bottles, glass, jars
- plastics
- recyclables
- contamination
- toxic
- dangers
- marine life
- pollution
- garbage
and our responsibilities towards our waste and rubbish.
There were lots of interesting things to think about - leave a comment on something YOU will do as a result of taking responsibility for your waste and rubbish :D 
Go on ….. leave a comment ……..
Summer Holidays
We made it!
After the frantic rush of end of the year we are finally on school holidays
Congratulations to everyone for your hard work, commitment to your learning, your sense of humour and for tolerating my (out of tune, but very enthusiastic) singing (and dancing) over the year!
For those AllStars who are moving on to High School at the end of January, thank you for the past two years. I know that you will all continue to grow and learn about yourself and your world, all of the rest of the AllStars will miss you sooooo much so please keep in contact and share your High School experiences with us back here on the AllStars blog.
Years 4 and 5, you will be moving up into Years 5 & 6 - some of you are school leaders already, we are all proud of the way you were ready to take up the challenging role of a school leader. Congratulations to everyone of you, we know that you will do a great job next year.
Here are some of my memories of the past year:
rubber gloves, crazy hair, funny hats, the Harbour Bridge birthday, ANZAC letters, dodgeball, chickens in the War, flags, garbage bags, PS2, buddies, Sandy, choose your own maths, Australia wiki, blogging, orange oranges, storyteller, jumping ropes, PWii, tennis, Samorost, Xcountry, eyes, science, vinegar on the ceiling, commenting, sculptures, junk, drawing, Ned Kelly, “Are We There Yet?” , debates, forensics, microscopes, experiments, cricket, visitors, games, BST, camp, water fights, Macbeth, history, MissionMaker, leadership, parties, pizza!, spiders, music, laughs, boogie, Gay Gordons, laptops, Voki, presentations, tunnel …..
Have I left anything out?
AllStars, enjoy the break, think about what/ how/ why you want to learn next year. Keep in contact through our blog - I’ll be posting over the holidays ( our videos of the Gay Gordons, Heel Toe Polka, Yr 6 Farewell etc) so keep looking in when you get the chance.
Have a great holiday,
Love MrsP

Leadership 2007
Over the last week or two we have been participating in a variety of Leadership sessions:
Year 3 have been learning about how to be a tolerant and considerate person.
Years 4 & 5 have been learning how to be a good leader.
Year 6 have been working through a transition to High School programme.
We have all been working with groups of people from different classes - this helps us to get to know other people here at school that we wouldn’y usually have the chance to work with.
In Leadership Training we cover topics like
- Public Speaking - “Speak Up”
- Responsibility - “Stepping Up!”
- Confidence - “You Grow When You Have a Go!”
- Organization - “Think Team”
- Team Skills - “Showing the Way”
After this training, the Year 5 students have the opportunity to apply for a student leadership position for next year. They have to fill in the application and attend an interview. If they are chosen as school leaders they will present a speech at Assembly and the school will vote for the 2008 School Captains.
Good Luck to everyone in Year 5 who applies
