A Typical Literacy Morning In Room 11.

Room 11 have been working very hard this year on literacy. We have read and written lots and Mrs J is very proud of us. Great work Room 11.

Great Gardening Galore

This morning we helped Jonesy and Cd with weeding the garden,  We had to pull out stinging nettle, prickles and thistles.  We also had to pull some potatoes because they were in the wrong area of the garden.
The aim of our garden is to sell the produce so that we can have enough money for next year to buy more seeds and equipment. We need to keep growing the crops to sustain our garden.
We love cooperating because it's helping the environment and it's epic fun.

Waikekewai Awa - Our Trip to the Marae

Today we went out to Taumutu Marae to visit Waikekewai Awa - our new syndicate name.  We also picked up rubbish off the beach....sadly we found 8 bags of rubbish.

On the spot reporters - Sage O'Connell and Lucy McMillan will share their thoughts on the excursion.

Sage: I thought it was really cold and wet.  I found a pretty shell and gave it to Ms Davison.  I saw the stream and it looks really cool.

Lucy: It's a shame we didn't go yesterday!!  I still enjoyed going to the marae again and seeing the Waikekewai Stream.  Unfortunately, I slipped off the log and got my left foot WET!

Pizza with the Principal

Well done the children from the Senior Syndicate who enjoyed pizza with Mrs Taylor.
