We are very lucky at Glenbrae School because we have lots of lovely deciduous trees that drop their colourful leaves at this time of the year. Everyone loves playing in the leaves. Today, Danielle, Gemima and Gabriel joined the juniors having great fun throwing and playing in them.

We Enjoyed Cooking

On March 2011, we had carrots, garlic, potatoes, herbs, kumera, parsley, pepper, oil and salt. The people who were there were Hannah, Lisiate, Christian, Jerome and Mrs Palmer. We invited Miss Elia to have some of our healthy food. It was ready in 40 minutes We were glad it was ready. Hannah ate the garlic all by itself. Her mouth was hot and spicy so she spat it outside the hall. After Hannah, it was me that ate the garlic. Miss Elia said it was nice. She really liked it. Lisiate was smelling the food. He even closed his eyes so it looked like he was sleeping. The food looked yucky, but it was fabulous. It had no meat.

Drumming

Last year, all the students at Glenbrae School were lucky enough to have a fun, fantastic visit from Chewy and his friends. They are amazing drummers and they have got heaps of drums, enough for everyone to have one. We had a great time learning some new rhythms from them. We were pretty sad when they left and took their drums with them BUT, thanks to the singers in the fantastic choir who donated their night's takings of $800 to us, we have been able to buy 10 drums for our school. Today, Room 7 got into the rhythm and practised some beats. We're not too bad but we plan on getting much, much better. Watch out for our next drumming post.

P.S.

Did you notice how Douglas and Lisiate made sure Nunia had a turn with the drum? I felt very proud to have two such helpful, caring boys in my class. Thanks you two. You are great role models.

Everybody else was great at sharing as well. I am lucky to have such a friendly and kind group of students in my class this year. Keep it up everyone.
