BLACK POEMS
We have been writing poems related to colour. First, we needed to think about the different colours and what they could mean. We used our senses to examine the colour more deeply.
We decided to work on the colour BLACK first. Check out some of the awesome writing we have done.

UC Students
We had another busy week with lots of work and fun in the classroom.
We were very excited to have a group of UC students in the class teaching us about SUSTAINABILITY.
What were the main points that they discussed with us? What key ideas have you learnt?
Check out what we did with them.
