We wrote these Octopoems about famous people or characters. Each line had a different theme – can you tell what the themes may have been? We hope you enjoy reading our poems.

Wearing skull and dagger clothing to show who she is
At night he hangs his whip on the rocks in the big cave
He hides in in a cupboard when you look for himPosted in Uncategorized | 2 Comments »

Bush dancing with Room 18 this term has been lots of fun. Miss Bell did a great job of teaching us the dances. Thank you to all family members who came and danced with us, and thanks to all who sent in afternoon tea for us all to share.
