Year 1 and 2 Syndicate Dance Performance

Today has been a day of excitement and nerves as we got ready to perform this evening for our parents, family and friends.  The Year 1 and 2 syndicates have been learning some contemporary dances from around the world with Footsteps.  Thanks Kimi for helping us learn our dances!

As part of our inquiry focus this term we have been looking at cultures around the world.  We danced to Hot Wings (I Wanna Dance), Around the World, Big Coconuts, Better When I'm Dancing and Cotton Eyed Joe where we lite up the stage with our dance moves.  It was heaps of fun.

Here's a couple of shots of us in action.

Movemprove

This term we have been lucky enough to have Movemprove every Monday afternoon for 45 minutes.  We have learnt how to do forward and backward rolls correctly and to do a forward roll on the bars.  Some of the activities that we have been doing challenged us but we worked on taking a risk to try something new and to persevere.

Hui Presentation

On Thursday last week (Week 7) it was Room 13's turn to share some of our learning with the rest of the school.  We choose to share some of what we had learnt the week before about the Spanish Festival 'La Tomatina' which actually took place in Brunol on Wednesday 31 August and our acrostic poems about Spring.  Before we did that though those of us that are in the Junior Choir shared a song we have been learning with the rest of the school.
