Room 1 Olympics





To celebrate the 2008 Beijing Olympics, our class had our own Olympics. The events were darts, dice stacking, cotton bud throw, box-ing, stalk standing, shooting and abs of steel.
Every body took part in and sometimes we even won a medal.

40 Hour Famine


Room 1 got involved in the 20 hour famine. Lots of people did it on their own, but we did one as a class. A lady came from World Vision and in assembly she gave our school a gold award for raising so much money in the famine. We were really proud that we could raise so much money.
