Cricket
A man, called James, came to Springston School today and he taught us about cricket. First, he showed us how you catch. You make a basket with your hands and when you catch the ball in the basket, you close it and tuck it into your chest. We had throw the ball and then quickly touch the ground and clap before catching it again. James showed us how to how to hit the ball with the cricket bat. You use the flat side of the bat and hit it. By Isaac.

Thank You
Recently I received a lovely email informing me that a parent in Room 3 has nominated me as an 'Inspiring Teacher'! WOW! This really means a lot and I feel very proud to have made such a positive impression in my first year of full-time teaching. You can read the nomination here. Each morning I look forward to seeing 23 smiling faces and know that there is going to be lots of fun, excitement, and energy as we go about our learning.
I would like to acknowledge that it is great to be part of the innovative and inspiring teaching team at Springston. It is the children and families of Room 3 make my day at 'work' fantastic - so thank you for helping me become an 'Inspiring Teacher' this year.

School open Friday
Congratulations on your A+ Adaptability as we struggle with the challenge of no power. We have no indication as yet when power will be restored to school. We plan to open school on Friday provided the weather is fine, regardless of the lack of power.
Some things you need to know: The back gate to school via the field and Secret Garden are both locked and closed until further notice. This is a safety issue because of tree damage and it is likely that these gates will be locked for the rest of Term 3.
On Friday afternoon we are planning a fun event at the Domain for the children to welcome them back to school. We will be leaving for a picnic lunch and activities at 12pm and welcome you to join us. Subway will run as normal. Icy-slicy will be postponed until next Friday.
Please note that with the power being out, we have no phones, heating or alarm systems. We will leave it to your discretion as to whether you send your children to school. If the weather should turn cold or wet, these plans will need to be reviewed. The school will open unless you are advised that it is closed by school websites, Facebook and the More 92 FM radio station.
