Hot Wheels day

We had just finished discussing the 'Teddy Bears Picnic' day and decided  to brain storm other fun ideas using the 'Green thinking hat'. Harshil shared his thinking about having a Hot Wheels day at school. We deceided it would be considerate to include our friends in Room 2 as well. Great discussions went on in each group about how each track would be designed and how this would be delegated. All groups showed their values and key compendencies as the photos show.

Gymnastics trip.

Finally we got our chance to show off our gymnastic talents. We all loved the bus ride especially seeing the 'dance school' on the way through Glen Eden thanks girls. It was very crisp inside the gym and Jesica was extremely brave with the cold. Once we all warmed up a bit we soon forgot about the cold and loved trying out all the equipment. Apparently the favourite stations were the trampoline and the foam pit. Thanks to all our amazing parents for coming along and helping us.

Matariki kites

Ask your children about Matariki this weekend. They have a lot of knowledge about the Maorii New Year from Mrs T (our student teacher who we have been lucky enough to have for the last 4 weeks). Kites were made with great excitement and enthusiasm. Happy flying them Room 1. Also Happy Birthday this weekend to Ryan and Jacob.

Volcanoes

Room 1 have been studying volcanoes finding out some very interesting facts. We particularly enjoyed Mrs T demonstrating a volcano eruption. Thank you Ryan and Cooper for being self-directed learners and bringing in new information to share with us.
