Fairytale Ball




We had a fantastic time celebrating the end of term with a Fairytale Ball. The students, teacher and some parents and little siblings looked absolutely fantastic dressed up as fairytale characters. There were wolves, princesses, bears, princes, knights, kings, a frog, Jack (from Jack and the Beanstalk), Little Red Riding Hood, pirates and one of the Billy Goats Gruff.
We paraded around in front of a big audience of family, friends and grade 6 buddies. The paparazzi were out in force taking lots of photos. Then we did the dance we have been learning, we even got to dance with some of our family and buddies.
After that we went back to the Prep Gallery for our special banquet. Yum!
What a super way to finish the term! We hope you all have a very relaxing and fun holiday time.

School's Birthday


To celebrate Yarrambat Primary School's birthday, we sang 'Happy Birthday' to the school. The two youngest preps get to blow out the candles and this year they were from our class, Logan and Chloe. Well done guys!

Term 2 almost finished - Fairy Tale Ball approaching

Ciao!

As Term 2 comes to an end I begin to wonder where the year has gone.

We have had lots of fun participating in our Fairy Tale theme and are looking forward to our Fairy Tale Ball on the last day of term. I am still deciding what to wear. It should be a great day, hope to see you there in your costumes!

Just a reminder we are going swimming on the first Tuesday of term 3 and we are looking forward to that beginning.

Have a relaxing and restful holiday and thank you to everyone for their help this term and reading the blogs.

Cooking Gingerbread Men

We loved reading the story of the Gingerbread Man because it meant we could do some cooking! We worked with Prep O to read the recipe, mix the batter, roll out the dough and cut out the raw gingerbread men. The teachers put them in the oven to cook and made sure they didn't jump out and run away! Later when they had cooled down we got to decorate them. The best part was taking them home to eat. Yum!
