Last week we experimented attempting to complete art works in the style of Kandinsky. All students accepted this challenge and their art work was amazing.

Book Week was celebrated in week Five.

The two books voted most popular by our class were, ‘Not Cute,” and ‘Your Birthday was the Best.”

We really enjoyed the Book Week Parade.

Our class garden has grown well. Recently we provided the canteen with a box of lettuce. The lettuce plant is regrowing so there will be more available in about three weeks time.

Good Morning everyone

She hates sport but she enjoys watching the swimming.

She doesn’t like eating but she loves food.

She hates some vegetables and really hates carrots.

Can you help me?

How come she likes somethings but doesn’t like other things?
