Duffy Books!

This morning the whole school went to an assembly in the hall. A special guest came to talk to us. He was a wrestler, an artist and he writes comic books. He was pretending to be a superhero and he had a mask.

We also got our Duffy Books. We each got 2 very good books that we are going to read at home. Here is how we decorated our box:

Because of the holidays and the short week, we had our assembly early. Paris received the certificate for our class because she has been an amazing helped all week, making sure that the room is always tidy. Phoenix also had his name picked out for a Duffy Award. He was on the Superstar Rainbow in the last week and had his name in the draw.  Great work to both of you, and enjoy the book Phoenix!

Duffy Books!

Today was our first Duffy Books Assembly. We had a special guest come in to talk to us and give us our books. Her name was Jacqui Knight and she talked about what a passion is. She also asked if we could figure out what the word: "doggerel" meant? (Can you? 10 house points if you post the meaning and you're a Meerkat)

Afterwards we went back to class and opened up our box of books. Everyone got two books that they can take home and keep forever! Have you been enjoying your books at home already?

Watch the video of her talk below.
