Carol’s Birthday Present from Room 11 It’s the 1st of April and it’s our lovely Librarian Carol’s birthday.  Ms Corbett thought she would give Carol a nice present.  Ms. Corbett found this awesome leftover piece of trunking that she thought Carol might like.  Even better, she borrowed a bow from Miss Laxa and put it on the present.  Ms. Corbett will ask Carol for the bow back later.  She thinks Carol will love her present.  Happy Birthday Carol.

One of our tasks for EOTC Week was to set a building goal, work as a team to problem solve to achieve our building goals.  We also spent some time problem solving as individuals.  Miss Laxa set 4 tasks based on a television show from both the Philippines and USA.  One task was to balance a can on it's side by altering the water levels.  Other tasks include catching ping pong balls in cups, building a domino style track using CD cases and directing a balloon using only an air pump.

We learned some useful throwing and catching skills.  It was also great to learn how to bowl correctly for cricket.  We enjoyed playing games that allowed us to practice the skills we were learning.

It was great to see Jess and Harold from the Life Education caravan.  Jess shared lots of interesting information about our bodies and we enjoyed Harold's karaoke.

We were lucky enough to receive professional swimming lessons by qualified swimming instructors.  We spent 2 weeks learning many swimming skills.  This will be followed up by another 2 weeks of lessons later in the year.
