One of the best things about blogging

is making ‘Blogging Buddies’.

We have made friends with children

and their teachers from nearby Bray.

and faraway USA, Canada,

Australia and New Zealand.

We have exchanged messages, packages

and even had a visitor from Tasmania.

When we blog we learn interesting things

about people and places all over the world.

We learned that New Zealand is ahead of us.

When it is Sunday evening here,

the students are back in school for Monday.

 

We learned when it is Winter in Ireland,

it is Summer in Australia.

 

Did you know that students in New Zealand

do not wear shoes in class.

This wonderful video is how we found out.

We also see how hard they work.

 

Thank you to Mr. Spice and his students in

Room Three, Aurora School,

Taranaki, New Zealand.

Have a look here.

It is amazing 🙂

 

If you want to know more about

students going barefoot in school

Izzy, Emily and Gemma

from Mr. Webb’s Room One

Aurora School made a short film

about it. You can see it here.

One of the great things about blogging

is that when we write for the blog

we know real people are reading

our work.

 

Our parents, families and friends

can see our work on the 

world wide web.

 

For that reason we are extra careful

and try to do our best work.

We love how our work looks

REALLY great on the blog.

It looks much better

than in our copybooks.

 

We love adding photos from Compfight,

that make our stories come to life!
