We’ve bid farewell to our wonderful grade, having celebrated the end of our time together yesterday with our pool party and a Kris Kringle gift exchange. We had a great year and were definitely the best grade in the whole school – who knows, maybe even in all the state! Maybe in the world? Or the universe?
The pool party was fun, with the thunder holding off until it was time to get out of the water anyway. We walked back to school in the rain and got wet, but after a day at the pool, no one cared too much. Before we knew it, it was time to say our farewells and go off into the wide blue yonder.
Congratulations to our wonderful grade six students who completed their primary schooling so well – they should all be proud of their achievements this year and are sure to be successful in their secondary schooling. Hopefully many of them will keep up with our blog and their own as well – we’d love to hear from them in the future.
To our grade five students, you are our leaders of 2009. There are many wonderful opportunities for you as you continue your education journey. I am lucky to have some of you in my class again next year – be ready for anything! For those who are moving on to another school or to another grade, enjoy yourselves, learn lots and keep in touch.

Your blog looks great. As I teach in the States, however, it was a little weird for me to see that your school year has ended already (ours began at the end of August and ends the beginning of June). Also strange to read of your pool party since we have been dealing with ice and snow! A pool party sounds pretty fun right about now!
We’ll have to debate, though, on the best grade in the school comment! I think my students are the best, but it’s nice to know that other teachers around the world feel the same way!
I love the smiley face images. Could you share where you found them?

Keep up the great work!
From Mrs C: Hi Mrs C! It is strange sometimes, how opposite sides of the world are different in so many ways. We are in a very hot summer with many terrible bushfires burning, and the 2009 school year began only 3 weeks ago. We have already had a week of swimming lessons – it was very hot that week, between 36 and 42 degrees Celcius! But it will be autumn in a few more weeks and the cooler weather should start then.
