Ice-cream Party

Today we had an ice-cream party in our class. As we won’t see Deirdre, our Speech Therapist for the rest of this school year, she brought in ice-cream to treat us. We had to ask for our preferred flavour of ice-cream and the toppings that we would like. We were very good at asking the questions and using our new vocabulary. Yum, Yum! See you in September Deirdre.

Happy Birthday Pricia

Happy birthday to one of our Speech Therapists, Pricia. 21 again!!! We were so good at keeping the party a secret. Pricia got a huge surprise when she came into the classroom. 20160601_12434620160601_124355

We even got to feed some of the animals:

They even had some unusual animals – alpacas and llamas:20160530_11593620160530_115633

There was a fairy woodland there. We were very quiet and tip-toed through the trees:

We knocked on the doors to see if any of the fairies would come out to say hi:20160530_11420920160530_113726IMG-20160531-WA001020160530_11370020160530_11350520160530_113425

African Drumming

For the last few weeks we have been trying out African Drumming. It has been so much fun. Patrick is our drumming teacher. We learned about the different sounds an African drum can make and all the different rhythms you cam play on the drums.

At the end of this week’s class we learned a traditional African dance. Here we are performing it. Thanks Patrick.
