THIS IS ROOM 5s CLASS PARTY!!! In the photo you can see most of the boys all eating lots of yummy food! Jack  and Jayde took a creamed pikelet and smothered it on their faces It was funny to watch.Also Des didn't feel so good after the party. At our class party we played lots of fun games, like Wink Murderer , Quiet Castle and Charades. We had heaps of food. Des brought some Samoan pancakes... they were so good! It took us about 3-4 weeks to plan our party :).....by Corbyn and Jack                                                           

war hero homework

Room 5 students were given a task for homework to find out about a war hero. We were given a piece of paper each which told us the name of an animal or person we had to reaserch. Some of of them were ;John Simpson, Anne Frank, Edith Cavell, Simpson's donkey, Caeser the dog and Sir Charles Upham. We had one week to complete this task. Some of the things that we had to find out were, when they were born, when they died, family history,  which war they were in, their part in the war[s] and our opinion of them.
 On Friday there were lots of creative ways that people had presented their information. Maddison showed her information on a grave that she had made.

Pontoon technics

Yesturday Room 5 students had a task to make a pontoon with the technics. We had to design it so it could carry soldiers from their battle ships to the shore. We had to remember that it was very hot so we needed to add a shelter. We also needed to think about shelter from the Turks bullets. The pontoons had to be able to fit at least 40 to 50 soldiers on it. Some people added paddles so that the soldiers could row themselves to shore. Other people made paddle boats.
