Quote of the Week

Jump Rope for Heart

A busy week with plenty of things going on!  Room 8 participated in the 30th Anniversary of 'Jump Rope for Heart' a great afternoon spent skipping....certainly a great way to warm up!
Some impressive skills from all participants.  Funds raised will go towards heart related initiatives.

Although a little more practice required before tricky Double Dutch moves attempted!

Leonardo Da Vinci

More about Leonardo……(a great thinker outside the box)!

“There are three classes of people: those who see.

Those who see when they are shown.

Those who do not see.”

~ Leonardo da Vinci ~

Leonardo was a vegetarian and because of his vegetarianism, Leonardo had a habit of purchasing caged birds and then releasing them into the wild.

Leonardo was a technological genius. He drew designs for a helicopter, calculator, tank, solar power and a double hull.  Although his designs, except for a few, were not constructed during his lifetime, some of them, like the automated bobbin winder and a machine for testing the tensile strength of wire, were huge successes.

Leonardo completed over 13,000 pages of notes and drawings, only a few of these pages remain.
