Moreton Bay Journal 2015. Term 3, Week 1

Henry: We went to the football and we saw the Tigers and the Giants and the Tigers won. We went to Crown and we went to Granny and Pa’s new house; there’s stairs and it goes up to a playroom where the kids go.

Louis: I went to a museum, and I saw T-Rex’s; they only eat injured animals because they can’t run very fast. We went to get my model of a red-arrow aeroplane; Daddy told me it was cool and then I chose it.

Ben: I went to the Crown Metropol and I went to the Galactic Circus and there was a lot of games like car games and different sort of games. I liked the pools at Crown, theres only two. There’s one hot one and at the end of the big one it’s really cold, it’s a deep pool. We didn’t have a microwave in our room at Crown Metropol so someone brought it in for us for my sister ‘cause my sister likes to drink milk.

Sophie: At Bright I went to see the kangaroos with my family, like my Daddy and my sisters and my Mummy.

Nella: I went to a hotel with my Mum and my Dad and my sisters. I liked going in the pool with Daddy. Nanna Jellybean and Gran stayed at my house because my Mummy and Daddy was in Sydney.

Zoe: I went to the farm and I saw bunny rabbits when I was going to the bin. I saw two first and then three. I went to the hot springs with my whole family. We went in the pools, its a place where you relax.

Sean: I built a house and it was a real one. But I didn’t build inside the house I just build outside and I like building houses outside. I built some with people and I built lots of houses by myself. I used rectangle boxes and squares and flat rectangle ones, and I used flat rectangle ones to make more boxes with one on top of each other. I played outside, I went on the trampoline but it’s a circle one and it’s a big one. It’s black and yellow and white.

Alessia: I went to Byron. I saw dolphins and whales, they umm wanted to go up and down and up and down and I saw those little dolphins surfing. We saw this big rainbow, we saw them twelve days because we’ve seen them a lot of times.

Lucas: I went to the museum with my whole family and there was a rollercoaster but it didn’t have the track it was just a little thing like from here to here, it was tiny. There was the live ants in this square and we saw a hairy spider but it didn’t move because they nailed it in this other square frame.

Mitchell: I went to Lachy and Cooper’s house. We watched Ninjas.

Lotus: I went to Bali and I swammed there and I played with my cousins in the pool.I liked the lights because when I went to a cafe, I saw lanterns there.

Diesel: I went to Mount Hotham with my family except my Dad and I skied. I went to the city for one night. I stayed at the golden hotel.

Lola: I went to Disney on Ice and saw Snow White.

Hayley: We went to Echuca and we stayed in the shed because the house isn’t finished yet. We saw a puppy, Billie, she was cute!

Felix: I go to someones house, Yeeyas house and I played Lightning McQueen on my iPad.

Alice: I went to Anglesea and I went to the beach and I made a sandcastle and a cake. It was pretend out of sand.

Ian: Well I played with my toys; Spiderman and my robots. One was the evil one which was my robot!

Joshua: I went out for breakfast every day because we didn’t have any food in the fridge, we only had custard. I went to the beach, we didn’t go on a plane we drive there. We had a balcony next to our lounge room, we looked at the park ‘cause every day we tried to go to the park and ask Mummy and Daddy.

Preparing for Our Excursion to the Theatre

Visiting the TCW and Drama Department

The children visited the TCW today which is the theatre in the senior school. We wanted to find out what you need to make a

theatre, as some of the children have discussed making a theatre in our classroom for puppets. It was also a good

opportunity for the children to recognise that we are part of a larger community here at St Leonard’s College.

The children were overhead stating…

You need lights! ….. And seats…..

The seats have numbers on them ….And letters!

…You need a stage for the people

We then walked around the drama department and looked at their costumes and drama spaces. We were lucky that the

drama studio was empty so we could utilise this space for a drama and puppetry workshop. The children learnt about how to present to an audience and learnt some puppetry techniques to

operate hand puppets.

EYLDF Outcome 2:

Educators promote a sense of community within the early childhood setting.


We Saw the Gruffalo’s Child! Alice

Term Three ExcursionThursday 16th July 2015

I liked at the end where they had the big scary mouse and the li6le Gruffalo ran back and the mouse ran a9er her and she kept trying to give the s<ck back to her but she kept running away. There were lights in

the theatre that made the eyes of the mouse red and I liked how they made the shadow. -‐ Ian

I liked it when the Fox said Buffalo instead of Gruffalo because it was funny. The mouse made a big shadow with red eyes and a black body. I liked the Snake when he said Happy Birthday. There was a computer behind Miss Keir, it

made the shadow of the Big Bad Mouse. I liked looking out of the window at the cars and the trucks. -‐ Louis
