WATTLE DAY WALK

On the 1^st September, Room 22 teamed up with their spectacular buddy class, Room 17, to spread the joy of Wattle Day around our neighbourhood, by delivering ‘school-made’ letters.

 

Room 22 worked hard on their Wattle Day cards, ensuring perfection to the smallest detail. Our cards were cleverly fitted with a brush, which was painted gold and green to resemble a Wattle Tree. Inside were our own poems which we wrote ourselves, along with a short message explaining the meaning of Wattle Day.

Room 17 created their own cards with their beautiful handwriting encased in a green card with a hand-drawn cover.

So, on Wattle Day, Room 22 and Room 16 split into two groups, one led by Mrs.Munro (the awesome Room 16 teacher) and the other led by Mr.Petch (Room 22’s amazing teacher). We were also joined by four boys from Mr.Sherlock’s class, Room 15, who joined us for the week whilst Mr.Sherlock went with the year 6’s to camp.

It was a spectacular morning of delivering letters, finished off by an early morning recess. Overall, it was a remarkable experience and lots of fun.
