We are amazing!

We are amazing at building tea trays using duplo.  We carried Mrs O'Loughlin's glass of water up and down the ramp without spilling a drop!  Some trays even had lids that could adjust so they could fit different sized cups. Well done.

Philip Trusttum

Susie from the Christchurch Art Gallery came again this afternoon.


We looked at Philip Trusttum's work.
He is a New Zealand artist.
We really like his art. 




We created masks in his style. 
We used felt pens to make patterns and dots to decorate our masks.


Thank you Susie.

Our 150th Jubilee

This lovely news came to school today.

Here is the picture of Maisie McConnon (youngest pupil!) with the oldest surviving past pupil from Ashley school.
 Her name is Zita Herbet and she is 99 years old and hoping to make it to the jubilee next year.
We were introduced to this lovely lady at Bainswood on Victoria while Maisie was visiting her great grandad!
