We were able to hold a corn snake.
Nayana fed a sugar glider a live insect. Everyone was able to have a touch.

Your homework this week is talk time:
Should school uniform be banned?
In class we’ve learnt how to write balanced arguments. Discuss with your parents, or adults at home, your opinions about school uniform. Think of and discuss points that you agree with and points that you disagree with. Also think about a conclusion and the connectives that you would use in your discussion.
Make notes in your homework book to show the things you discussed and what you concluded.
Homework is due in on Wednesday 14 March.
