2000m swimming

Today I swam 2000m, that is 80 lengths of the pool. I was very pleased with myself and I enjoyed it lots as I was a fish.

Afterwards Mummy did something odd to my mashed potato. It was like play doh so we made it into a snow man. I did eat it!

funny show

This afternoon I went to see a funny show called Circus Bezerkus. I got to go on stage and do playing bells which I loved doing. There was lots of funny juggling and accidents. In the interval I played Go Fish with my friends which a fun card game.

We got there too early so I played in the park first and Mummy gave me a fierce look when I got all muddy!

Blue day

Today was blue day at school so we all wore blue clothes and not our red uniform. We raised money for anti bullying day. We had to Be Loving and Understanding of Everyone which spells BLUE.

Mummy kindly washed my favourite blue fleece jumper that I got muddy at survival day so I could wear it today again.

 

survival day!

We had the most awesome day today. It was year 3 and 4 survival day. We spent all day outside and put up tents and made fire. We ate toasted marshmellows and learnt loads of cool survival stuff like iron age people.

I wore Mummy’s thermal leggings a thermal vest and fleece jumper, my warm coat, head band and warm gloves. After school I was roasting in all that warm stuff at choir!

best ever homework

My homework today was the best ever. We had to decide if toothpaste was a liquid or a solid.

I did some experiments. I found toothpaste only flowed if squeezed. Even syrup flowed in my test tube but very slowly. The toothpaste did not move unless squeezed or pushed. So it is not a liquid.

But it is not a solid as it did not keep it’s shape when I pressed it.

I made a paste from talcum powder and water. Toothpaste is a paste or I found the science word was colloid. It is a solid mixed into a liquid but the solid ha not dissolved.

Children singing for children

Today the Deddington school choir went to St Mary’s church in Banbury. It s a cool big church. We met with 7 other school choirs. Each school got to sing 2 songs and then we all sang 3 songs together. We were raising money for a new school to be built in Africa.

We did practising after school and then Mummy took me to Pizza express. Loads of my friends were there too as it is really near to the church. We just had time to eat and finish my icecream pudding and we had to rush back to the church for the show.

I was super excited before going on stage. We sang a hymn and the did a musical theatre dancing and singing the song Naughty from Matilda.  It finished really late and I was very tired and thirst at the end. i found it very hard to get to sleep as I was still so excited.

Then he plays but I have to help him because his paws are so floppy.

Uncle Nic’s cakes

Today I went to Grandad Dennis’s house. It was Uncle Nic’s birthday and so I made him some cakes. I put little rice paper hobbits and lego star wars people on them and I ate loads of the icing too!

I loved playing crazy games with Uncle Nic.

We went to the pet shop to buy Speedy some locusts and I bought a weather loach. He is in this bag but he is really little. I have named him Skippy and he is adorable.
