School’s birthday party



Our inquiry this term is ‘Celebrations’. Our school has turned 50 years old! Happy Birthday Elm Park School.

We had a great party in Room 2. We made our own party hats using coloured paper and tissue paper. We decorated biscuits, played limbo, pass the parcel and we even cut out own class cake! Some of our parents came along to join us too. What a memorable day.
