Welcome to Room 6's Blog...

We are one of the Year 3 & 4 classes at Russley School. We aim to work together well so that we can achieve success in everything we do. To help us be successful students we use the Russley Dispositions. They help us to train our brains to think successfully when we are faced with problems where the answer is not immediately known. On our Blog you will find photos, videos, up-coming events, notices and a range of other exciting information that we would love to share with you!

Welcome to Term 3!


HELLO THERE EVERYBODY .... 

Welcome back after what hope was an enjoyable holiday. Term 3 is going to be full of sport, The Habits of Mind activities, Olympics, Frogs, (yes - FROGS!!!),  AVAILLL, Narratives and iPad-ing!

With Room 27 such a fabulous and wonderful group of young people I am looking forward to getting stuck into some great learning.


Here's some jokes to get you giggling...

What did one eye say to the other? Thereʼs something between us and it smells 

What did one eye say to the other? He got a little behind in his business


What kind of plants are good in dark places? Bulbs 

What do witches do best at school? Spelling 

What do you get when you cross a comet with an owl? A hooting star 

What do you get when you cross a centipede with a chicken? Enough drumsticks for everyone

What happens when two snails have a fight? They slug it out.
