Week 5: A's and B's rugby match by Joshua H.

On the 5th of October 2012, the A's and B's went to Northwood prep to play a rugby game. The two teams did not lack confidence at all. From the time they stepped into the pitch to the time they were eating muffins and pizza at tea, they were always victorious. The B's match went well, very well even with the end score finishing in an amazing 30-5 to us. The A's went even better, if that's possible, as they trashed the opposition 30-0. Clearly both teams passed the ball around using skills and working together. They all deserved the pizza and muffins! At the end of the day, UCS had a great match.

Community Action Day this Thursday!!

The charities chosen by everyone at school are RSPCA and Little Soldiers. Remember to have your poster ready to advertise your stall by now. Also, try not to buy things for your stall but rather use your imagination or your talents to create something unique!
I am looking forward to seeing what you have all come up with!

Weeks 2 and 3: Temu's visit from Tanzania by Medi, Jo and Ben H

We had a very exciting past few weeks in 5C. Temu is the Head Master of Choba School in Tanzania and he came to visit us at UCS (visit www.childrenofchoba.org to find out more). He came to stay with us for 2 weeks. We had a lot of fun and he taught us Swahili. During Temu’s stay we also had Swahili Club at lunchtime. The members of Swahili club were Sandy, Lucas, Alex, Eden, Lucas B, Gustaf, Jack, Marshall, Kirian and me. We all learnt how to count to 1000, the greetings and two Swahili songs etc. We also did Swahili Assembly. We also learnt how it was to be a boy at Choba School called Omari who is 11 and in Class 4 and we also learnt Swahili sums like 45-40=5. It was great fun to have Temu with us!
