Senior Team Go Mad!

Well the teachers finally let us in on what was going on with them!  They have all been acting a little over-excited all day.  After the lunch bell we found out why!  They just couldn't wait to get their crazy costumes on!!

Our teachers - Harmony (Mr Rose), Emily (Mrs Christie), Daisy (Miss Jervis) and Moonbeam (Miss G) all dressed up to introduce our new theme to us - which you all know by now is Boogie Wonderland.  Then Daisy taught us all an old fashioned dance - it's called a Folk Dance.  The one we learnt was 'Heel & Toe Polka' - it was really funny and the photos are funny too (check out the front of this weeks newsletter!)

While Daisy and Harmony worked with the whole team on the Folk Dance, Moonbeam and Emily set up a treasure hunt challenge all around the school.  We broke off into teams and raced around the school finding answers to lots of trivia questions about music and musical instruments.  It was a great way to learn! 

Well - that was day one of term 3!  Miss G (I mean Moonbeam) is off home soon - she is feeling a little bit exhausted after all the excitement of the day.  Catch you all tomorrow.

Dear Moonbeam,
Your blog looks fantastic, almost as fantastic as you in your dancing gear! We are looking forward to following your blog and hopefully seeing some video footage of the dancing I know you do so well!

Mrs A :)
