Term 3- week 4: May 8th-12th 2017

    What impressive and informative posters our class has made this week! Although they had to work in partners (which can be tricky), each group was able to meet all of the objectives which we had set out for ourselves.  

There were some very good presentations as well, full of questions to the audience and facts about the interdependence of living things. Great job year 2!
