Super Egg & the Kerrimuir Gift

 Last term, the last day.....is..... SUPER EGG and the KERRIMUIR GIFT!!!

   Our class was great and guess what we won both of them, Jade for the Gift (running) and James for the Super Egg.

   For the Super Egg it was a very close match with Super Egg she was a very round so it rolls more easily but James’ egg was much heavier so it won ,fair square.

   As the Super Egg finished the Gift came around the corner. The grade 3s started then the 4s, preps, 1s, 2s, 5s and 6s. Jade was the winner for the boys in grade 5 so he went in the big race with the winning teacher and other winning students. On your marks ready set go!! Jade ran so fast and came first even though he was near the end. He got a nice certificate as well. Since the Super Egg and the Gift is annual event I hope next year is as good as this year.

Twilight Sports

On the 27^th of March most of the students of Kerrimuir Primary School came to the oval at around 6:00pm and came to do some sports.

 The sports that we were doing were the teddy bear race was for the preps, they had to carry a teddy bear on their back and run to the finish line. The balloon race for the grade 5\6, they had to run to the end of the line with a balloon when they got to the finish line they had to blow up the balloon, tie it up then pop it and run back to the end. The three legged race for the preps and the buddies they had to tie a bandanna around their legs so it became three legs, then they had to run to the end. A jumping race for the friends and parents they had to connect arms and jump very far and if someone disconnected arms or fall over they had to start again. A relay race for the parents and one of the parents fell down. The waddle race was with a ball between the grade 4 students’ legs and run all the way to the end without dropping the ball between their legs. The grade 2’s did the egg and spoon race they had get a hardboiled egg from home then put it on a spoon and run\jog\walk to the finish line. The grade 3’s did the sack race they had to run with a sack on them to the finish line. The school and house captains\vice captains had to set up the whole thing! There was also food and drink. It was really fun.                         By Chris Moutafis

Mental Maths

On Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday each week, we have to do a worksheet on General maths. There are only 20 questions on the sheet, and we are given about 5 minutes to complete them. Because we are learning about graphs, when we finish, we have to draw up a graph. But it’s not just for you; it’s for everyone on your table!

For example, the first week we did it, I had the scores of Charlotte, Serena, Emma and myself on my line graph. To tell the lines apart from each other, we were all different colours. But for some people there was a problem; what happens when people get the same score? Well, we couldn’t put the dot somewhere else, because it wouldn’t tell you the right score. So we had to do a dot with half one colour, half the other colour. On one of the days, three people on my table got the same score! That was probably my favourite dot.

The ‘Y’ axes was the scores (1-20), and the ‘X’ axes was the days. The aim was to improve or maintain your score each day. We are now doing our third week of mental maths, and are pretty good at the system now.
