Hello Im Angus and this is Hollie

Two weeks ago a new boy Seth came to room 6. He has got lots of nice friends now. Seth came from Invercargill.

We have a new teacher called Mrs C because another teacher called Mrs Adams left. Mrs Cooper is still here too, so we are lucky as we have 2 teachers in our room.

We are learning to write expositions. In groups we are writing to Mr Gallagher to persuade him to ban school uniforms. We wonder what he will say when we give them to him.

FIRST WEEK BACK!!!!!

New term - new topics!
This term we are studying the rugby world cup. We have to adopt a country that is coming to the world cup and learn about that country like there flag, emblem, rugby jersey, population and things like that.
And our new topic in KIWI CAN is CO-OPERATION. We are doing table points to demonstrate that we as room 6 co-operate with each other together and at the end of the week we count up the points and see which team has been more co-operative throughout the week.
