Lime Prep

For Fathers’ Day celebrations the preppies planned a sausage sizzle for the Dads.  We gave our Dads three presents – a pot plant, a book about dad and a portrait of Dad.  We played musical statues and the “bean” game.   We hope our Dads had a great afternoon.  We had lots of fun.

Hi Lime Class Dads,
Happy Fathers’ Day.  Sorry still no Podcasts….still having probs with file type.  I will let you know when I get it all sorted.  Photos of Sausage Sizzle to be uploaded on Monday. Sandie

Mr Eric Anderson visited our school and spoke to students about the Glossy Black Cockatoo. We found out lots of interesting things about the Glossy Black Cockatoo. Thank you Eric for your visit.

At the musical showcase we performed our Glossy Black Cockatoo song. Here we are dressed up on peformance night. Don’t we look fantastic!!!

Tuesday 18 August we had a visit from Mrs Fuller from Moreton Bay Regional Council. We learnt all about Whizzy the Water Drop and his Incredible Adventures.  We looked a diagrams of the Water Cycle and talked about ways to save water around our house.

These are some things you can do:

Turn off the tap whe you brush your teeth.

Take short showers.

Don’t fill the bath too full.

Install a 1/2 flush toilet.

Fill the dishwasher with a full load.

Put a bucket in he shower to catch the water when you are waiting for the right temperature then use it on your garden.

Use a shower timer.

Install a rainwater tank/s.

On Friday 14 August we celebrated Under 8′s Day with games and activities on our school oval. 

We had a visit from the Lifesavers. We learnt all about the warning signs and flags so that we can keep ourselves safe at the beach this summer.

We had a great time at the African Drumming Performance on Friday 31/08.  We all sang and played a drum.

Caleb was keeping the beat

On Thursday 30/07 our class and our buddy classes (Navy Prep, Magenta6/7) planted 50 Casuarina Trees in and around our school.  These feed trees will eventually grow food for the Glossy Black Cockatoo.  We are hoping to attract more of these birds back into our area.  The trees were provided by the Glossy Black Cockatoo Conservancy.  Our Planting site was listed as a Planet Ark  National Tree Day Activitiy.

Our sports day was lots of fun.  We enjoyed running and tabloid events.  These girls from Lime class are from Pegasus House.
