My Birthday Party at Bounce - by Phoebe Andonopoulos

On Saturday I went to Bounce for a birthday party. It was so much fun!
We had a guide lady for 1 hour and the other hour we could go wherever we wanted. So, for the 1st hour she showed us where to go and we played on the trampolines. We played dodge ball and netball on a trampoline and jumped on an airbag. When we were done jumping we got hotdogs and party packs and ate cake. Then we took photos and the party was over. I really enjoyed it!

Homework Session Solutions - by Lisa Calitz

Too much homework?

Well, here are some solutions:

Try and get everything done in class
If you are at a homework class, don't waste your time and daydream.
If you don't understand, ask the teacher that is supervising you for help.

Everyone sometimes gets a feeling where they think: "Ah, I will do it later."
Even I've had that feeling before, but I conquered the laziness, finished my homework and did whatever else I wanted for the rest of the day.

The same is with studying for tests. You think you know everything, waste your time on reading, TV or Xbox, then you end up regretting the time wasted. Procrastination is not the real joy. Getting top marks is!!

What would your mother prefer to hear:
"Sorry mom, I failed..."
OR
"Mom! Mom!! I got a 100%!!!"

My first month in Grade 4 - by Maya Hattingh

Grade 4 is really cool!

We've only been at school for just over a month but we've been really busy. In Art I did a big willow tree. Our teacher is Mrs. Calitz. She is also our LO teacher. LO stands for Life Orientation. Mrs. Mauldon is our English teacher. We've done a speech, and now we are busy with creative writing, just like in the Newspaper Club. Grade 3 was nice, but Grade 4 is better! I can't wait for tomorrow and what is more to come.
