Blue is the sadness in one's heart.

It is the loneliness of a child being bullied. 
It is the shocked feeling you get when you wake up from a nightmare in the night. 
It is the ''laugh out loud tears of happiness.

Blue is the cold water in a pool.

It is the beauty of a blue whale with a calf.
It is the camouflage of a blue shark swimming above the reefs.
 


It is the colour of the sky on a hot summer's day.
It is the beautiful blueberries in the fridge.
It is the magnificent mulberries sitting on the tree patiently waiting to be picked.

Term 1 Inquiry

For our term one inquiry, Mr Matthews taught us a number of different soccer skills games. We then got into teams and chose one that we wanted to innovate to improve it. After we recorded our new rules we got to teach the rest of the class our new game. It was great fun!
