Electives - Term 3

Wood craft / Pokerwork

Each Tuesday 4 people are going over to Mageo, from 12.45 – 1.45. We are learning to do woodwork and pokerwork with Mr and Mrs Carter. Everyone is very keen so we are drawing names out of the hat so everyone will get a turn. We would like to say a huge thank you to Mr and Mrs Carter for providing this opportunity. (Jack)If anyone has any spare Lego it would be great if you could donate it to the school for our lunchtime electives. It would be very much appreciated. If you are worried it will get lost, don't worry because it will be stored in the library for safe keeping. (Huntah-Expert Plantagators)

Shade house development 13.08.2012

We have redesigned the shade house. We are boxing it up so that we can put gravel on the ground. We have designed shelves at different heights for different sized plants and working levels. We would like to thank Mitre 10 for the building materials and Mr Digby (Grandad) for his building expertise. Our next step is complete the structure. (Huntah)

If any body has any tools to donate to the school, such as hammers, nails, spades and saws, it will be very much appreciated. We will use them to create a school tool box for students to use as part of our learning, such as building our shade house with Mr Digby. (Jack)

Tools for gardening

If any body has any tools to donate to the school, such as hammers, nails, spades and saws, it will be very much appreciated. We will use them to create a school tool box for students to use as part of our learning. We are currently building our shade house with Mr Digby.

If anyone would be kind enough to come down and help us with that we will be real thankful.
