Cross Country

We had a great day for our school cross country on Monday 8 June. A number of us went to the interschool event....Tim, Emily, Stella, Maggie, Madeleine, James...well done!

Cultural Day

We played string games as part of Cultural Day . Here are Lydia, Eva and Tyler with their cup and saucer. They also played hopscotch, petanque, knucklebones and maori handgames. In other rotations they explored food and art and language of other cultures.

Red and Black Dress Up Day

Yesterday it was Crusaders and  Hurricanes day hope room 7 gets to the game.and it was fun posing together and we really hope we get the tickets.

ANZAC

Today Mrs Beyer-Reiger visited our class to show us her army gear. Maggie got all dressed up including holding the teddy bear (that Mrs Beyer-Reiger said actually belonged to Mr Beyer-Reiger!) Maggie said the uniform was really hot and she didn't know how they could wear it all day. Then Pad-Thai got to wear the gas mask. She said it felt really tight around her face.
Mrs Beyer-Reiger explained that the army today is busy peace keeping and helping in other places like Vanuatu after the cyclone. She also showed us how they slept in trenches and cooked their food. It was really interesting to learn all about it from someone who served in the army!

Gingerbread for the Gala

For the gala all the year 3 and 4 students made gingerbread people to sell in the sweets stall. ALL SOLD OUT. My favourite part was decorating them. We got one to take home- they tasted delicious!

Tent City at Paretai

Camp was a real tent city........43 children spent a restful night sleeping, well up until 5.30 am that is. A rooster woke many of us!!!
