A wonderful nativity play

Our Room 4 senior friends directed a fine nativity play. They helped us to make the puppets. They coached us to be the narrators and they showed us how to operate the puppets. The play was so good that the audience needed a second showing. Take a bow senior friends and thank you so much!

Sean is a champion

I went to the Black Caps West Indies International test. I played in the lunch break. At tea time I went to get my bat signed. I felt so proud.

Trip to Whare flat





What fun we had on our tramp today. It rained and rained and our feet got wet but what an adventure!  We climbed up through the bush until we found an old tunnel. Then we made our way back to the camp for a barbeque. After eating we played games and sang songs. We were very tired when we climbed back into the buses. And as usual Room 9 continued to shine all day. Well done super trampers!

What a lot we know!

We have now finished our "What is under the ground?" unit. What a lot we have found out. Some of us have thought of new questions.  Learning is great fun.

A famous conductor visits our assembly

It was great to have Daniel as  conductor for our assembly item. We played our guitars and recorders. We shared our facts from our research questions and then we showed our clay dinosaurs. Room 9 you certainly know how to shine!

Clever Clay Dinosaurs

We studied pictures before we made our clay dinosaurs. We had to study pictures again before we painted our dinosaurs. Room 9 you just keep on shining!

Hooray we're swimming again

We have begun swimming again. Aren't we lucky to have a swimming pool at our school!
