Logan Reserve State School and Cumberland Elementary

Hello from Australia

Dear Mrs Nash and class

Hello from 2D in Australia.

 Our school is called Logan Reserve State School. We are about 20 minutes drive from Brisbane, which is the capital city of Queensland, Australia.

 There are 21 children in our class. There are 15 classes in our school. We have classes from Year 1 to Year 7, and also a Preschool on the same campus.

 In two weeks time we will be on holidays for two weeks. The last day of this term, 21 September, is our school Sports Day. We all have to run in a race and play ball games. It is Springtime now in Australia. The first day of September was the first day of Spring. We didn't have a really cold Winter, and now the weather is getting warmer. We don't have to wear our jumpers and sweatshirts all day now. The weather might get cool again, but we shall have to wait and see.

QUESTIONS

 What is your weather like right now?

 How many children do you have in your class? How many classes are there in your school?

 We have a news-zine (newspaper/magazine) that our class has made. We publish a new issue every two weeks. We write stories and articles for it.

 We are also running a Post Office - collecting and delivering mail throughout the school. There is a lot of mail going around the school.

Do you have a project that you are working on? What things do you like doing in class? What are you learning about in class?

 We have three computers that we share with a Year 1 class beside us. Do you have computers in your classroom?

We will look forward to getting an email from you. We like getting mail from other classes. Write soon. :-)  Goodbye for now  from, Year 2D

Dear 2D in Australia,

Hello and thankyou for the email that you sent to us.

We have 21 students just like you! We are studying plants and apples. There are 5 second grade classes in our school. We liked your class picture. We are not allowed to send student pictures over the internet so we will have to mail you pictures of us as soon as we get them. Our school starts at the 4 year old kindergarten level and then goes us to 5th grade. We have 3 recesses and we are learning Science and Reading vocabulary words. Our class planted Brassica seeds and now we are watching them grow! We are learning different ways to develop new plants. There is a kid named Jordan in our class too.

Mrs. Nash's classroom has 3 new students! Next week we will work on a special project called "Cinderella Around The World!" Have a great year and we look forward to hearing from you again! Oh....we forgot! We are in the season of fall! Our cold months are from December to March! If you want to learn more about us, Visit our class webpage!

Can you identify these Aussie animals?

 

Hello Room 2D,

Thank you for your nice letter. We hope you enjoyed your Holiday. We are about to enjoy what we call Halloween? Do you have Halloween in Australia?

Halloween is a fun holiday for kids to dress up in different costumes and go from door to door asking for a "Trick-Or-Treat!" Pumpkins are used a lot here for Halloween. We made pumpkin faces and wrote a story about how our heads were turned into pumpkin heads.

Look at our Spooky Bats!

We have been growing plants

We are sending you a picture of our pumpkin heads and the bats that we decorated. We hope you like the pictures. We have been studying plants in Science. We are sending you some of our plant pictures too. Guess what? We worked on the Cinderella Project just like you did. We hope you enjoy our letter and our pictures! We can't wait to hear from you again!
