ROCKY SHORE - WHAT A GREAT DAY

Wow, what a great day we have had a the rocky shore.  

First we all took responsible for God's creation and helped pick up rubbish around the estuary.  We saw lots of mud crabs and beautiful flowers and grasses.




Next we went to the Rocky Shore and explored the rock pools.  We had a wonderful time and saw lot of wonderful animals.






 

Visit from the Police Dogs

Many many thanks to Luca's granddad for bringing his team of police dogs and handlers to our school.  They were amazing and we all enjoyed watching these amazing dogs in action.

Cultural Performances.

We have been learning about why people perform and what sort of things the do. We have watched dances from different cultures such as Maori, Samoan, Kiribati, Russian, Irish, Filipino  and Scottish. This afternoon we have been dressing our paper people in costumes from different cultures . We had to paint, cut and stick. We all concentrated really hard. Mrs Clarke was very proud of us.





Winter Sun Fun

Room 4 children enjoyed the beautiful sunshine this afternoon. They have been learning about the beauty of God's creations and today was a perfect example.

Luca and Joel were fearless as goal keepers in a classic game of whole school soccer.

Pito and Teresa had a workout on the monkey bars.
 
Teaioa enjoyed playing with some of her Room 6 friends in the boat.
