Constable Care comes to Wattle Grove

On Monday, 9th June,  Room 11 went to see a performance by Constable Care. We went with all the Year 2 and 3 classes. It was held in the Undercover Area at school. The show was a puppet show about cultural diversity. It was called Celebrations.

 Before we went to the show we looked at where the people in our class were born or where their families come from. Did you know that in Room 11, 9 people were born in a different country? Also that 13 students have parents who were born in a different country. Cool hey!

In the show the puppets had to research how to have a class party that would include everyone. They went to their class mates and found out what games they liked to play, what music they liked to listen to and what food they liked to eat. We learnt about a lot of different foods, music types and games from all over the world.

At the end Verity, the lady who was in charge, asked us questions about the play. Ariel and Elham each won a prize for getting questions correct.

We thought the play was funny, especially when the puppets tried to dance and to play 'Monkey Run to the Pole.' We couldn't stop laughing. It was interesting to listen to how different cultures celebrate. We think we might like to have a class party to celebrate the diversity in our class!
