Alaska photos from Keren's Dad

Here are some photos from Alaska where we are catching Polar Bears, today we caught three (a mother bear with two very big cubs) It is very cold & the sea is just starting to freeze & all the lakes are already frozen. We have seen plenty of polar bears, grizzly bears, caribou, musk ox & arctic fox's. These three bears caught today on a little windswept island
Waves from the sea slowly freezing.
One of Keren's Arctic fox's.
Following polar bear tracks, we followed these for about 40 km until we caught up with the bear.
Another two polar bears captured on a small island, the white shelter is so the biologists can work with the bears in the cold wind.
A mother & cub captured near Deadhorse, Alaska.

Firestation Visit





When we got to the Fire Station we say three fire engines. Two of the trucks were leaving to take Room 2 back to school. We liked the new Fire Engine the best. Then we went into the lounge and Courtney tried on a Fire Suit and Taylor tried on a mask, but not the tank because she would have fallen over! We listened to Firefighter Ian and he told us about dangerous things in fires and how to keep safe. Then Justin told us some more information and he showed us how quickly he could get into his Fireman suit. He crawled around us wearing his mask and tank so we could hear what he sounded like.It was really fun playing with the hoses because Mrs Hansen got soaked! After the visit we all got a ride back to school in the Fire Engines.

Our Garden





Today we have had fun gardening in our new tunnel house and garden.
We have planted strawberries, sugarsnap peas, baby carrots, a cherry tomato plant, cucumber and some lettuces. We are also going to plant some marigolds and parsley to keep the bugs away.
Look at us having fun in our garden!

Finished Scarecrows


Room 4 have finally finished our scarecrows and we took them to the Community Garden for its Opening Day. Buzz group 6 was judged best in Room 4 and won a prize for us that had gardening gloves and some vegetable plants for us. We have planted these in our garden.
