Australian Citizenship Pledge

"From this time forward, under God,
I pledge my loyalty to Australia and its people,

Australian Citizenship Pledge

I think that it means to understand Australian Rights , to share the same beliefs and to have loyalty to Australia.

DEMOCRACY

This term we are studying about Democracy and part of your ICT work is learning to blog.  Blogging is just posting notes on line.  Your first task is to do some simple research on a non-Australian who has played a role in the development of Democracy internationally.  You have a few questions to answer about them. Once you have found that information, please create a new post, put the name of your person as the title and include the information you found in the body of your post.  Change the font, colour and size of your writing to make it unique and show us that you know how to do so.  Happy blogging!

vote for the best childrens picture book

I THINK THAT THE BOOK IS COOL BECAUE IT IS VERY COLOURFUL AND BRIGHT.

family forest

my families forest is a nice and real book i enjoyed the colours in the book i recommend this book to all ages

Family Forest

I liked Family Forest the most because it is very creative, colourful and confusing but in a good way. I like how they make their brothers and sisters in humerous animations. And also about how normal familys have family trees and this family has a family forest. I love this book because of all these reasons.

It's Bedtime William

'It's Bedtime William' has pictures that are bright and vibrant and it's very well illustrated. I have enjoyed reading this book and i hope that it wins! :)

I believe that Mirror by Jeanie Baker should win because it tells a good story and gives a good point of view of how both countrys work and how they do it differently.

Noni the Pony

Noni the pony was a great book because of all the pictures and the way Alison Lester rymed the words to make the story very interesting and enjoyable for everyone.I thought this book was great and i would recommend it to 4-6 year olds.
