Interschool Sports - Girls Bat Tennis

On Friday 9th of May the Lakes vs. Plenty Park Lands (the Redbacks). The Lakes team captain was Bonnie Fergurson. On the Redbacks team the team captain was Jessica. We enjoyed playing with the Red backs. Unfortunately the Redbacks won but we had a great time on Friday. Our next match is on the 23rd of May and we are playing against St. Lukes.

Bye for now,
Martina Veleska and Ivana Angelovska.

RESPECT

Respect is to treat someone or anyone the way you want to be treated. It also means not to tease people that look different, wear different clothes and do different things. These are ways of showing respect:

* Giving your seat up for an elderly person or a pregnant woman on public transport

* Attending someone's funeral

* Accepting other cultures and customs

* Always use your manners

* Don't wreck other people's things

* Respect peoples feelings and opinions

* Respect our laws

That is what respect means to me and it should mean to you.

Music

Every Monday morning each learning group has a different specialist. There is Food Tec, Music, Technology and Drama. Each term we have a different specialist. Last term my learning group had Music. Our music teacher is Piero. Each week we did a different thing. For e.g., One week we sang another week we played instruments. We also learned about a lot of old bands and singers, like Elvis Presley and the Beatles. The sort of instruments we play are the castanets, drums, bongos, xylophone, triangle and plenty more.
