Merry Christmas

Our class made candy canes and a Christmas plates with a pohutukawa on it for our Christmas art activity. We enjoyed colouring them in and painting them. This is our last post for the year as we move to a new class next year. We wish you all a very merry Christmas and a happy new year.

We made a Scarecrow

Our class made a scarecrow to go into our school garden as part of our environmental project. We had fun making it as we stuffed pea straw into old pantyhose and dressed him in old secondhand clothes. Take a look at our slide and tell us what you think.

Pet Day

Yesterday we had a pet day at school. We could bring along our pets and have them judged. We could also create things using a pet theme. The day was lots of fun. Take a look at our slides and tell us what you think.

The Work of Bees

Our class learnt about with work of bees. We learnt that there are different types of bees and that they do different types of work. Some pollinate flowers and others make honey. We really enjoyed the creativity of learning about bees through art. We also liked learning about the honeycomb being made up of hexagons. Take a look at our slide and tell us what you think.

Fun with Water

As a treat for doing well in our Junior Musical the junior school got to play water activities as well as to eat hot chips. The slides show some of our class enjoying the water activities. We enjoyed running around, squirting each other and getting wet. It was a lot of fun.Take a look at our slides and tell us what you think.

Ice cream Sundaes

Our class all enjoyed our ice cream sundaes. Our slides show Micah, Luca, Isla and Olivia writing about them. We did this as part of our writing activity. First we wrote down the steps to make an ice cream sundae. Then we ate it. It was yummy. After this we wrote about what it looked like, what it smelt like and what it tasted like. It was fun. Let us know what you think.

St Johns Award

Milly brought along her St Johns trophy to share with us in show and tell. She won the West Coast District Youth Competition for the Penguin Pairs. We were all very proud of her for winning such an award as it shows her care for helping others. Let us know what you think.
