Science Experiments using Milk.
Our class did some experiments to look at how we could change the properties of milk from liquid to solid.


Look at the Butter we made from cream. We had to shake it in a jar. It was really yum on crackers.
"Shake butter, shake butter, shake, Shake, Shake!"


Look at the icecream we made by freezing milk in a bag of ice mixed with salt. It made our hands cold.


We ate the ice cream with fruit salad that was cut up from our fresh fruit in school.

We also made yoghurt using the yoghurt maker. It was thick and creamy. The teacher added the boiling water to make the milk go thick. We had to wait a day for the milk to turn into yoghurt.



Spirit Day - Army Visit

The whole school had an amazing fun afternoon with the army. We dressed in an army jacket then ran under a camouflage net. We were in our house teams. We then had a  "Tug of War" using a ginormous rope. We had to pull really hard and work as a team. Most of us wore army style clothing. Our class put on face paint the same as our house colours.


Here we are with our face paint ready to go out to do the army activities.


We are getting help to put on the army jacket.



This is the net we had to crawl under. It was challenging.


The army officer is explaining what to do before we pull the rope.
