The Gladwrap Challenge


Our class has carried out a survey to find out how many students use gladwrap in their lunches. A huge majority do. A small minority use alternatives like small reusable plastic containers and lunch roll paper instead.
Gladwrap is a huge problem at school. It makes up a lot of of rubbish, especially the rubbish that ends up flying around in our grounds. We know a lot of it finds its way into the paddocks of the farm next door. This must be a concern for Mr Mason as it is possible his cows may eat it.
Gladwrap takes a long time to break down- 1000 years. We really want to influence people to use alternatives. This is our challenge to everyone at school. In two weeks time we will do another survey to see if we have made a difference.
Please help us to achieve our goal.

Rules, rights and responsibilities


We have discussed how we can have a harmonious classroom environment this year and we have made a classrom treaty to refer to. It states our rights and responsibilities. Each member of the class has signed it and we will refer to the treaty when we need to.

Rights and Responsibilities

Everybody in this world
Are entitled to their rights
The right to eat
The right to drink
The right to sleep at night
And in our class (which Ill use as a demonstration)
We all have the right
To a quality education
The right to express Our opinions and ideas
And to be treated fairly
By all of our peers
But with these rights
Come responsibilities
To always try our best
Say thank you and please
To work as exceptionally as a busy bee
Always own up to what we have done
But a right and responsibility
IS TO ALWAYS HAVE FUN!!! By Aimee Stevens

Welcome back to school

It is great to see everyone back to school again after a long and wonderful summer holiday. Room 1 has a few students that are back again in Room 1 as Year 7's and there are some Year 7 and Year 6 students from Room 2. We also have a new student from another school which is nice. Welcome everyone.
