Running Superstars

Great effort from everyone in Room 17. The dedication and determination that was put into cross country today was PHENOMENAL! It was an added bonus to have people come in the top 10 for the whole of the Year 3 boys and girls. 

Maths Week

As it is maths week I will be posting up problems on the blog for Room 17 students' to do at home. Remember the more problems you do the more points you earn. Write the answers in homework books. Good luck!

Question 1

Cross Country

Next Tuesday will be our school cross country, there will be no swimming as cross country will take place in the morning at 10.30am. Parents are more than welcome to come. Please make sure you bring your sports gear and drink bottles. Go Room 17!

I think we'll be a bit more motivated than Garfield.
