Term 2

We have now been back at school for 2 days, but we all had a great holiday. Maddy went to Australia. She was the only one to go overseas. Others were lucky to go to places like Queenstown, Wanaka, Nelson. Moraki, Christchurch, Kaikoara.
This term we are looking at ART. Today we talked about Grahame Sydney and looked at his landscape paintings. We will also be looking at Aboriginal Art.

Last Day of Term One

Today we have done lots of cleaning up in our room. We are taking home our pencil cases to check them over. Lots of us need new pencils, glue sticks and rubbers.
For lunch today many of us had sausages and juicies. It was great. Thank you Basketball players for organising it.
We just want to wish everybody a happy holiday. Remember we don't start back until TUESDAY the 28th. Monday is a teacher only day.

Movie time

Wednesday 8 April

It has been a long time since we wrote here - we have been VERY busy and Mrs Cooper has been away.

We have finished today our Leave art work. We made a collage of leaf rubbings, drew some pencil drawings of leaves and dyed 2 of them lots of colours. Come in and have a look at them hanging in our classroom.

The hall is looking great. The builders have been very busy and some of the walls have brick and wood on them.

We really enjoyed our wacky face day.....don't we look great! Thanks for the fly cemetries - they tasted really nice. We decided we may have our own wild food festival next term. Mum's and Dad's put your thinking caps on about what we might have!!!

Scenic

We had a fantastic morning down at the scenic exploring Autumn - running through leaves, throwing them, watching them fall and glide to the ground. WOW we learnt HEAPS! We will have so much to tell you about this morning. This afternoon we have captured some of our thoughts into poems and pictures.

April Fools Day

Not too many tricks were played in Room 6 this morning. Mrs Cooper thinks it was good she wasn't at school before lunchtime. She went to the interschool swimming sports.

The hall is looking different and it is starting to look a lot better now. The builders are really busy and have put some walls up.

We are really excited because tomorrow we are going for a walk to the scenic to explore autumn.
