On Friday Funday Major Blunder came in with his troops to share his knowledge about the Agincourt Battle which took place on October 25th 1415. It was a battle that took place in France between the French and the English. We were pretending to support the French so we made blue flags to cheer on our soldiers. The rest of the school had made paper swords and helmets. We had a fabulous time watching safely from the sideline!

As part of our enterprise learning our next inquiry topic is 'Popcorn'. Our key idea is learning how profitable goods have to be researched, developed and marketed. We have completed out first 'taster' and I suspect we may need to repeat this!
This term for P.E. we will be covering Run, Jump and Throw activities. We also have 4 sessions of Grasshopper Tennis which is a fun and interactive programme to introduce children to tennis. We have experts to come in and run the sessions.
Next week....
We will be reviewing the use of capital letters and full stops.
Our tricky words will be ask/any.
During maths we are consolidating numbers before and after any given number up to 100.
Things to remember...
Library day is Friday. It would be great if we could have 100% library books returned by Friday.
As it is Term 4 it is an absolute must to be wearing a sunhat at morning tea and lunch. The hats need to be wide brimmed to cover neck and ears. Caps are not acceptable.
Have a happy and safe week!
That Battle looks like it was loads of Fun!! Connor's Uncle is from France, so he'll be pleased to see the class supporting the French side ;D
