The Big Cross Country

Today we had our cross country beside the beach. We all thought it was fun. Lots of Mum and Dads were there taking photos and videos of us.
Sasha came 1st in the 5yr girls.
Jemma came 1st in the 6yr girls, Abby came 4th in the 6yr girls and Riley was 3rd in the 5 year boys race.
We all ran well and some of us were puffed and thirsty.


Today the new classroom arrived on two trucks. A very big crane lifted them off the trucks and placed them on the foundations.

Hello from Christchurch

Hi Room 2
This morning we had to wait 2 hours for our plane to fly out of Hokitika because of the fog. When we finally got to Christchurch we spent the rest of the day at St Albans. They have 27 classes at their school and I saw some great ideas. I hope you have had a good day.
At Bromley School they had a beautiful black cat that slept in the staffroom on a chair.

Red sky in the morning

Mrs Schroder took these photos of a sunrise and a sunset and we talked about the saying.
I wonder if it will be right today?

Letter of the week

Cross country training

We have been preparing for the cross country by getting fit. Each day we do some exercise and today we ran around the court. When we went round once we got a stick. At the end of 10 minutes we counted our sticks and next time we are going to try to beat our own score.

Afterwards we used the iceblock sticks to make 2D shapes.
