Firstly, a big shout out to our Birthday Boy! Happy 5th Birthday! We had a class party and a school party. Our birthday boy blew out the candles and cut his birthday cake!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our fieldtrip to Nagisa Fire Station was an amazing experience for Savanna. “The ladder so high! 30 metres. This (oxygen tank) is so heavy. The wheels are so big. That’s hose!” We were shown equipment that firefighters need for rescue operations – a big cutter, fireproof helmet, suit and boots. Savanna even tried carrying the 20kg oxygen tank! We were told that firefighter on duty need to carry that for 5 hours straight! So Savanna, if you want to be firefighter you have to be healthy and fit. We were told that we have to study hard too!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We made masks for the upcoming Setsubun Festival too. The Oni demon masks were drawn and cut out. Paper plates were painted and yarn pasted for monster hair! Guess who we are bhind the masks!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Setsubun <\/em>(\u7bc0\u5206), literally \u201cseasonal division\u201d, marks a special occasion in Japan’s old lunar calendar- winter\u2019s end and the beginning of cherry-blossomed spring. One of the tradition is throwing roasted beans at demon-like oni<\/em> while chanting \u201cOni wa soto! Fuku wa uchi!<\/em>\u201d meaning \u201cDemons out, luck in!\u201d.

We continue with more Jump Out words (Group 2) starting with “out, in, so, see, had. has”. Please see the video link below. Savanna was given some homework “Community Helpers Journal”. Thank you, Parents for supporting your child in their inquiry of this unit. You make great role models as our community helpers, and not forgetting as inspirations for learning the English language too! Till next week, have a fabulous weekend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
