Road Safety with Ronald McDonald

Ronald McDonald came to visit us at Western Heights yesterday. He talked to us about Road Safety.

Pyjama Day

On Tuesday the Junior's celebrated Pyjama Day.

Pink Shirt Day

A group of senior boys got together and promoted the support of Pink Shirt Day.  The whole school got in behind it and showed their support by wearing a pink t-shirt (though, if you didn't own a pink t-shirt red or purple was also fine) and donating to the anti bullying campaign.

The boys organised the sale of bands and pink cupcakes, which all went down a treat!

Cross country

We were all so excited about today's cross country run.  Here we are in our groups getting ready to start the run.

Shapes

Room 10 are discovering that shapes are everywhere!

On Thursday they all went for a walk around the school to find different shapes. Here are a few of what they found. Room 10 also made a fabulous poem.

Vegetable Soup!

Rooms 8, 9 and 10 have been growing silverbeet outside our rooms for the term.  We decided that the best way to eat our silverbeet was to make vegetable soup.

With the help of our book Stone Soup we discovered the best way to make tasty soup is to add lots of vegetables.

Mad 50 Monday

Monday 14th of April we celebrated being at school for 50 days.

We discussed how 50 is half way to 100.  So we came dressed in halves.  Some of us had only half a pair of socks on.  Some of us had half our hair up and half our hair down, or half spiky and half flat.
