Galoop Goes for Breakfast

Good afternoon,

This morning Galoop took us all out for a bite to eat at Drexels to celebrate the end of the Term 3 holidays.

So off we went.



After Galoop carefully drove us down to Riccarton (we were even followed by a police man at one point. Galoop gave him a smile...), we arrived at the restaurant.


After a quick coffee...


...and a chat with Matthew...


...he settled down to make his selection for breakfast. So many choices, such a little stomach! "Hmmm," he said. "That Drexels' Special sounds really tasty." So that is what he ordered.


Some toast was duly presented and quickly munched down. Not bad, considering he doesn't have any teeth!

Then he got stuck into his breakfast proper.


Some fried eggs, crispy bacon and a hash brown...yum...


...with a side order of a piece of French Toast. Mmm mmm.


Galoop finished his final cup of coffee, and we all headed home.

Thanks for the breakfast Galoop!

Mr Grant

Expressionist Monday

Good evening,

I'm gearing up for the new term, kicking off with our very first Art Attack week - nothing but art (and prayers and half an hour reading - oh, and Athletics day all day Tuesday) all week.

Room 2 will be starting with a spot of expressionist painting. Which is all a bit new for me, but I found this, and, well, it seems to be mostly about brush strokes to express emotions. I think. So, I gave it a go on the board this afternoon, using, appropriately enough, Paint!



Suffice it to say, we'll all be learning together!

On Wednesday the children will be with Mr Shae for some Mixed Media art, then on to Miss Shaw on Thursday for some Weaving, and finishing the week with Mrs Norton for some Print Making.

(I'll be working with Room's 5, 10 and 7 for the rest of the week. I may, or may not know what I'm doing by Friday!)

CU Monday,

Mr Grant
