We would like to wish Alison Smith, our wonderful Phys Ed Assistant, everything of the best for the Comrades Marathon on Sunday. This will be her 7th Comrades run. Have a great run, Alison, Micklefield is rooting for you!
Congratulations to these runners who took part in the cross country held in Wynberg Park last Friday in very windy and cold conditions. They all finished in the top 3 and received medals!
Grade 4s strike a pose with their sit-up counting robots, combining fitness AND technology. Ms Blackbeard, you would be so proud!
The Grade 5s were so excited to investigate materials that are good conductors of electricity. They tested various materials and observed which material allowed electricity to flow through. Hannah excitedly discovered that if she used two batteries instead of one, the light bulb would shine brighter!
Grade 3s working with Mrs Zizi in a hands-on counting lesson and making puppets with Mrs Zizi in preparation for creating plays in groups.
The grade 3s enjoyed the first of three Drama Therapy sessions with Jessica Mason on Thursday. They explored themes such as friendship, cooperation, building on each other’s ideas instead of shutting them down and being a good listener, all though roleplay, games and stories. It was a lovely way to build our class community and bring us together as classmates.
These Beanies will be distributed between Beanies for Bridges and The Dominican School for the Deaf and the Octopi to Thula Baba Foundation . The baby beanies and blanket will go to the Lions Club. A big thank you to all of you who knitted, delivered , donated wool etc.
