Our Holiday Writing

We wrote in a different way about our holidays. We wrote something we didn't do, something we would have wanted to do and something we wished we had done and then finally about what we did do. We hope you enjoy reading them.

100 Days at school

To celebrate 100 days at school we were asked to bring along 100 of something. Here's a photo of us holding our 100 things. Unfortunately we did not get a photo of Olivia holding onto the cake with the 100 pebbles. We all thought it tasted yummy too, thanks Olivia.

Jared brought 100 pom poms

Micah and his 100 grains of rice

Olivia and her 100 water balloons

Jahzarn with his 100 buttons

Xahria and her 100 pieces of pasta

Ava with 100 rice bubbles

Isla with 100 pieces of pounamu

Luke with his 100 honey puffs

And Lewis with the 100 sticks he collect along the beach

Well done and many thanks to all of you.

Our Frosty Writing

At the end of last term we had some really good frosts. One morning we wrote about the frost. Read our writing.

Jahzarn is reading

Great to see you pointing to each word as you read Jahzarn. You were very proud of yourself. Well done.

Look at our wonderful surprised faces we did in Art

Learning about Kaitiakitanga

One of our school values is Kaitiakitanga. We have been learning that Kaitiakitanga means to show respect and responsibility by looking after our environment. We thought about how we can show Kaitiakitanga in the classroom as well as in the playground. Each day we try to practise Kaitiakitanga. Look at how we can show Kaitiakitanga in our school.

We have been learning about Perseverance

We have been learning about one of our School Values 'Perseverance'. We each thought about something we wanted to improve with in our learning and set a goal of tying to persevere with it. Read our goal and how we got on with it.

Our Published Writing - Bad Luck Duck

We listened to the story 'Bad Luck Duck' where poor duck got stuck in the mud and none of his friends would help in case they got stuck too. We put ourselves in Duck's place and thought of what we would do to get ourself out of the mud. Read our writing. I'm sure with these great ideas we would all have been able to get ourselves out of that yucky mud.

We are all making some great progress with our learning

Wow Room 5. You are all making some great progress with the learning of your alphabet letters and the sounds that these letters make. You blew us away with your progress this week. You should all feel very proud of yourselves. Mrs Scott and Miss MacLeod are certainly proud of you all.

How exciting to have 5 students swimming along to their 2nd sight word fish all on the same week. I wonder how fast your fish will swim? You may catch up with Connor on that 3rd fish soon. Mrs Scott had better get that 4th and 5th fish up on the wall. Well done super kids.
