Today was our first day of clubs. There were so many different things going on around the school including kite making, animal care, chocolate making, picture frames, electricity, pirates etc.
We had a great time. These are some of the things we did.

Today Room 2 ran the whole school assembly. I was so proud of how well you did. You were fantastic. To think we only started practising this morning. It was lovely to see so many parents and a Nana, there to support you.

Last week Jonty, Ben, Jackson, Michael and Hannah taught the class their games. They did very well explaining the rules to everyone. On Friday morning we got the chance to play the games. Well done, you did a great job. We are looking forward to learning more games this week as everyone else has their turn.

Below are our amazing takahe pictures. Wouldn't they look great as stamps to put on our mail. Pop into Mitre 10 in the next few days and have a look at them all up on the wall with the other competition entries.

Yesterday the Green table wrote their stories straight onto the laptops. This was their first time writing this way,so they had to think carefully, not only about what they wanted to write but where to find the letters they wanted, how to leave spaces and how to make a capital letter.
Mrs Paterson wrote under one story in a different colour to show just how well we can work out our unknown words. Please remember these stories haven't been corrected and are our first effort.

Welcome back to Term 4. I hope you all had a great holiday. This term you need to have a hat at school everyday just like Michaela in the photo. Remember- "NO HAT- NO PLAY."

Have a look at the "Undercover Cody" website in the link under his picture. It has lots of fun ways to learn how to be sunsmart. Share this with Mum and Dad.

I hope you all have a wonderful holiday after a very busy term.
If you have a chance, please add a sticky note to the new "Wallwisher" (at the top of the blog) about what it was like learning and presenting your circus skill.
A big thank you to Ben and Jonty's Nana for the yummy marshmellow mushrooms. What a lovely end of term treat. Remember to keep reading and practicing your wordblast.
