MSBA Results

Today the results of which MSBA book had won the most votes at Waynflete were announced. Laurel came to our closing meeting to tell us and we were excited! The book was Bob by Wendy Mass and Rebecca Stead. Tims homestation read Bob and our overall rating was 5 stars out of 5! We all really enjoyed it. It’s about a girl named Livy who goes to stay with her grandmother who lives in Australia. When Livy gets there she discovers a friendly green zombie looking thing in her closet named Bob. Can she figure out what Bob is and how to get him back home? The story shares their adventures of trying to figure out what Bob is and where his home is. You should read it and let us know what you think about it. Daphne ( Here are the past winners )

DIY Pirouette

It really helps me if I’ve had a bad day, or something bad is currently going on in the world (coronavirus etc.), I can just put on a song and dance. Genuinely dance. And then everything else around me slowly fades away. I can just really show my emotions through the song choice and my body movements and isolations.  Now let me mention my dance environment. My dance friends are the most supportive and loving friends you could ever have. I’d like to say that my dance friends are my family, and my dance studio is my home away from home! So, I made the DIY pirouette video to be able to show everyone the real gift of dancing. No, it doesn’t stop the problems at school or home. No, it doesn’t stop you from being afraid or sad or scared entirely, but for those moments when you...
