Gordon Primary School

16th - 19th November 1998

Dear Gordon Primary School,

What a superb week we've had here once again. Even if the other schools who come are half as good that would be really great!

It has been a very cold week. On Tuesday the temperature never really got above freezing. It was a beautiful day... but cold! However when it is really cold we just wrap up well and go out anyway. We check the weather every morning just to see how many clothes we have to put on and then off out we go.

Anyway enough of this chit chat. Let's have a look at the rest of the page. By the way there has been a lot of wrapping this week. We have had wrapping up warm to go out and we have had rapping in the lab. Read some of the lab raps down below. First of all, however, I'll let you see some photos showing just how cold it was.

Come back soon

	It was so cold this week that Mr. Taylor could have taken any of these photos any of the days Gordon was up.
Some frosty fir leaves.
	And some frost covered grass.
It was cold wasn't it?... but beautiful!
	It was so cold that this waterfall froze completely.
Well... are you feeling cold yet? Maybe the next couple of photos will make you shiver.
This is the leaf that Steven found at Burn o'Vat. It was completely covered in ice. Amazing!!! To your right is a picture of Steven finding it.

Now we have some of the poems and other pieces of writing that the children completed over the week.

The Tap Rap Turn on the tap Turn off the tap Look at the graph What can you see? What must we do To make things better? Turn off the tap And do the water rap We've used too much We could do with less So let's all try To do our best. So turn off the tap And do the water rap. Five minutes is enough For any child Any more time And the staff go wild So turn off the tap And do the water rap Do the water rap.	Here are the electricity rappers.	Electricity Boom boom light the room Electricity Zap zap enjoy this rap Everybody We had a little peeper To read the little meter Electricity We've done our best And we've used less Electricity We must keep going Electricity flowing We must stay warm When it is snowing Electricity.
And here are the water rappers!	Twinkle twinkle little light We must switch you off at night We must save electricity For the benefit of you and me Twinkle twinkle little light We must switch off... Good night
Humpty Dumpty switched on the light And he got a very big fright He had used 506 k's In the course of long days.	Hard at work wondering how to present the weather to the rest of the class. Look you can see Mrs. Allen's head too!	Gordon Primary School are extremely cool They've tried to follow every rule They know they are not perfect yet They will get better.. wanna bet? They now know what they've got to do But some of it is up to you! You have to do your bit Switch off the top so it doesn't drip.
And finally on News at Ten some good news. The children from Gordon Primary have shown that they've become more aware of the need to use less water. Over the last 24 hours they have used 500 litres less than the previous days. However there is still room for improvement.

Well this is probably the longest page Beecy has had to put together so far. Thanks again Gordon for a really good week.

See you soon

Beecy
