BOOK WEEK 2005 AT SCHOOL

This is Miss Wyndham, Soraya's kindergarten teacher. She will have Miss Wyndham for Kindergarten, Year One and Year Two. Underneath this bear outfit lurks a very patient and wise teacher.

Soraya's now reading Level 11.

12TH SEPTEMBER 2005


Soraya came second in her first try at a speaking competition. Lumpy is an elephant soft toy.
Her speech went like this -
The Lumpy Story
Mitey took me to the movies to see the Lumpy movie.
The movie was sad when the Mum died. After the movie Mitey took me to the shop and bought me a Lumpy toy! He's my favourite toy and he sleeps with me every night.

31ST AUGUST 2005

Oh, Soraya asked me last night "how do you make a giant pea?" I could think of all the wrong answers, of course, but said nothing. I thought to myself that I guess you'd give him a laxative? It was just that with her veges on her plate she had a small pea and a big pea. Oops!

Soraya lost her first tooth today at 5 years and 7 months.
23RD JUNE 2005
Lauren (my daughter) was teaching Aalya how to be a birdie, so she runs around flapping her arms, going "flab, flab, flab"....gorgeous.
Soraya got some spaghetti bolognaise on her sleeve and announced to Lauren that she had "soot" on her sleeve!!
10TH JUNE 2005
Soraya knocked me over!! She read from a book...."The little dragon was a hero. Rascal, said Ben. That was the best trick of all."
What a delight, she rewards my patience every time!
