Elgregoe's Vistit - You've got the power

This morning we had Elgregoe and Sue come to perform magic tricks for us. Some of the children at our school got to help and they were given prizes. We also learnt about the values: respect, responsible, caring, trustworthy and accepting.

 

 

Listen to our video on what some of us thought was the best part of the show.

Meet the students of Room 5

Here's a simple video just to introduce the students in Room 5.

Auckland Trip 2013

We had a fantastic trip to Auckland. It was an extremely busy time with lots to fit in, but I am sure that it was thoroughly enjoyed by both students and adults who attended.
A huge thank you to all the parents who accompanied us, you were all great and a huge help to us teachers.
Thank you to Lisa Fletcher for the photos that are below. If any other parents have pictures from the trip we would love to see them.

Tea time at Waiwera Pools. The swimming was great fun but left us all feeling hungry!

Next stop was Kelly Tarltons, here we are onboard a snow truck.

WELCOME BACK TO TERM 4

Hi everyone and welcome back to term 4. We are already into our second week, with our first week being full of activity.

We started our term back with a visit from the filming crew for Country Calendar. Jessica and Kate's family are having an episode made about their farm. We look forward to seeing this view on television next year.

We had a visit from the Duffy Theatre group. This group visits our school each year as part of the Duffy Books in Homes program. This year's show was called Duffy Loses His Words and was about how reading gives us lots of words we can use. It was very funny and entertaining and we were lucky to have our photo taken with the actors involved at the end.

Sansa Kroma (again)

I've just reposted this as I think I had the video setting on Youtube as private and you couldn't actually see the video. I have made it unlisted so it should be seen from this link. If anyone tries to watch the video could you leave a comment to let us know if it works or not please.

Ms Megginson taught us a song that is sung by school children in Ghana. It is about a hawk losing it's parents and being left behind, it tells the children of Ghana that even if lose their parents other friends and family will always take care of them.
