Let's get the party started

Today we spent most of the day gardening, writing and drawing. We were also designing and organising. This party on Wednesday is going to be something special. We have had some great acceptance cards back from invited guests.

Eureka !

Yesterday we all went out when Mr Cordiner was finished connecting up the circuit to see the water fountain working!

It was very cold!

This is a picture of some of us with our hands on the water fountain!

Mr 'Sparky' Cordiner in action!

Yesterday while we were all filling up the pond, Mr Cordiner was connecting up the the turbine and the solar panel to the batteries and the batteries to the water fountain.

This is a picture of Mr Cordiner grinning because he was so relived, happy and pleased that it had worked.

Pouring in the water

Yesterday once we had all handed the bucket down the line, we thought that we'd give Geoff the privilege of pouring the first bucket into the pond.

This is a picture of Geoff pouring in the first bucket!

Filling the pond

Yesterday we all lined up in a big long line from Mrs Nicol's sink all the way to our water fountain!
The idea was that Mrs Nicol was to fill up the buckets and we all had to hand it down the line.

This is a picture of Mrs Nicol handing the first bucket on to Dana.

We used 24 buckets of water.

You are invited!

We had to write invitations to all the people which the Pupil Council decided to invite. The invite designs are by pupils who won our design competition. They will find out who they are today. We can't wait for the party!
