Visiting the Dylan Lewis Studio in Stellenbosch was great fun and very educational.
Fun on the bus.
A visit to Eagle Encounters, at Spier, was great fun. We learnt a lot about birds of prey.
Boys enjoying watching Sky, the Jackal Buzzard.
It was a wonderful learning experience too. We learnt some interesting facts:
Sadie: "Owls can hear the heartbeak of a mouse."
Nicholas: "Owls ears are under their feathers."
Kristen: "Birds have more bones in their necks tyhan we do, so they can turn their heads right around to look behind."
Christiaan: " The birds catch their food with their clawas."
Ewan: "An eagles claws are as strong as a lions jaws!"
Lise: "A vulture doesn't have feathers on his neck, 'cause he sticks it in a dead animal to eat the meat."
Reece: " Birds have very sharp eyes."
The owls danced to Shakira's music. They made us laugh.
It is fun counting with the feathers Ewan brought to school.
Lise brought plastic bottles to school to recycle so we made bird feeders with them.
Founders Day Celebrations!
Sticky buns, JCs and jumping castles! What more could we want ?
jaw, pupil, iris and temple.
Working hard at our self portraits.
Mrs. Webber read us a story called PUFFIN'S HOMECOMING, The Story of an Atlantic Puffin by Darice Bailer. We discussed the shape of a puffin and drew pictures .
Yy is for Yellow Yo-yo Man.
Lise brought her Yorkshire terrier to school.
Taydden and Alys have a 'y' in their names.
We made saltdough pictures of an egg. We painted the yolks yellow.
