Hi Readers!!

Sorry it's been a while, The Den have been SUPER BUSY since Term 2, we have had our Trash to Fashion, Fashion Show at school which was a huge success and it was AWESOME to see all the hard work from our Rich Task Inquiry 'When Does The Ordinary Become the Extraordinary?' over two terms come together on the runway.

We have started our new Rich Task Inquiry question 'The Commonwealth, Why Bother?' and are currently researching information about specific Commonwelath countries to widen our perspective on the world around us.

We also have our second Room 10 Assembly coming up next week and are currently coming up with fun ideas to make it even better than our first!

Balmoral's Got Talent is currently searching for stars for our up coming show this term and we have our very own dance group auditioning to be involved, fingers crossed for you girls!!!

Room 10 will be back to update you super soon!!!

Over and out... The Den's Blog Master!

Dear Blog readers:

I am so sorry that we have not been able to get any photos of us up on here yet, we have been trying our hardest but we just couldn't figure it out.

As some of you may know we are coming near the end of Term 1! Goodbye Term 1 and heeelo Term 2! Just 4 more school days!

We have recently just done the schools cultural mufty day, we saw capes, hats, skirts, face paint, and you name it! During cultural mufty were supposed to have a game of Killikiti so the teams of students, could play against the team of teachers! (I think that the students would of won lemon squeasy!) but unfortunately when the games were about to get started it starting pouring down, getting the students running to their class, and the megaphone shrieking that the game was cancelled.

On Tuesday next week, the school has the Bunny Hop, where the primary school kids can do as they please, as the intermediate kids help out.

Goodbye!
