Fun Water Day

We had been learning about keeping safe in the sun and working together as a team.  We made up some amazing teams, chose names, made wristbands and chose our costumes.




In the morning we did activities in the gym.  Some of the Intermediate students came to help supervise our games.  They were AWESOME thanks 'blue shirts' we couldn't have had so much fun without your help!








In the afternoon we had activities out on the field and lots of parents came to look, help and join in.  Some of the challenges involved water....and there was quite a lot of 'getting wet' but nobody minded! It was all so much fun.  Thanks, Mr Williams for helping us with the hoses and joining in the fun too. It was such a fun way to play and stay safe in the sun and with water.  We discovered lots of strategies for working well in a team too. Thanks to all the adults who came to help...we couldn't have fun days like this without all your help and support.  The children loved it!

Our Art

Look at our whiteboard covered with lovely sunflowers!  James' Nana is an artist. She came in and taught us about warm and cool colours. She brought sunflowers with her for us to observe with our artist's eyes.  Then we coloured in some outlines using oil pastels choosing warm colours. We also experimented with blending some of the pastel colours.      If we finished early we could colour a whole sunflower with stalk and leaves. We could also draw our own sunflower with petals. Thank you, Mrs Evans 😊

I see, I think, I wonder

Today we were learning to look carefully with our eyes and notice details in a picture. Then we had to think and give our thoughts and ideas about what we could see. Finally, we had to write 3 things that we were wondering about the picture or situation and we could use our imagination. This was the picture we were looking at: I See I Think I Wonder Mila-Rose I think the river is poisonous because it is brown. I see that there is a person who is worried. I see a kid is scared. I see a river. I think that the day over there is Friday. I wonder if they are needing to go to sleep. I wonder if they are going to fall down the bridge. I wonder if they are hungry or thirsty. I wonder if there are crocodiles and sharks. If I was one of them I would be impressed and terrified! Megan I can see people. I can see that the bridge is broken. I can see that the bridge goes down. I can see that the people have got a scared face. I think that the river has some crocodiles. I th

Visit to Tip Top

Going on the bus with Room 5 was a fun way to travel. Here we are in front of one of the original old ice cream trucks. We weren't allowed to take photos inside the factory. We just had to remember all the interesting things we saw about how milk changes into ice cream.  But when we were in the media room we got to choose a free ice cream from the freezer full of icecreams... ...then we got to sit on these fun little seats... ...and couches... ...and benches to enjoy our ice cream... ...with our classmates, friends and parents... ...while we watched a movie that told us all about... ...the Tip Top ice cream factory and lots of... ...interesting facts. After we finished our ice cream it was time for more fun! Which was playing on their playground of course while Room 5 had their turn to watch the movie and choose their yummy ice cream. After a good play, it was time for lunch at their conveniently located picnic
