Our Sun Study

We have been studying the sun for science this term.  Watch this presentation slide show to see what we have been learning about the sun. 

I used Google Present to create the slide show

Counting to ten

The Children in Room 1 are certainly clever.  They can count to ten in different languages.  Here they are counting in Maori, Mandarin, Japanese and Cantonese.

The Photo Book

The Lions reading group read The Photo Book and we decided to make our own version. All the Room 1 children helped with the voice over.

We were sad to say farewell to Evelyn on Friday.  We wish her all the best for her new role. Goodbye Evelyn, we will miss you.

Swimming

Room's 1, 2 and 3 had two weeks of swimming.  It was great to see the children's confidence and skill level grow with each session.  I asked Room 1 what they liked best about swimming.

Camp Movie

Junior camp was a great success with a large number of year 1 and 2 children staying the night at school.  A big thanks to all the staff and parents who helped to make our camp a wonderful experience and thanks to all the children for their enthusiasm and sound sleeping!
