Daffodil Day

Today is Daffodil Day! It was great to see how so many children got into the spirit of the day by dressing up in yellow, and donating money for the Cancer Society.

Some of Room 3 children dressed in yellow rubbish bags, or wore yellow pegs. One clever boy even tied yellow teddies around his tummy! (Good on you Tommy)

Here are some photos of our parade ...

School Disco

We had our school disco last Friday night. What a spectacular night! (and a great way to calm our nerves after the earthquake).

Here are some photos of the Junior disco ...




 

A HUGE thank you to the Student Council for organising and running the disco. You did a brilliant job. We had so much fun.

MATHS WEEK FUN

This week is MATHS WEEK. Room 3 have enjoyed learning new games that challenge us. We've learnt games that require strategic thinking and we've enjoyed the challenge of taking a game and changing it to make it more challenging.

Yesterday we went on a MATHS TRAIL around the school. We were in small teams, and had to find answers to maths problems. One of the tasks was to find as many different shapes as we could on the playground.  How many different shapes can you see in this photo?





We had to solve real life problems that involved adding, subtracting, and multiplying. We also had fun challenges like .... how many jumps to get across the netball court????


 
 
We taught the Room 2 children a fun adding/subtracting game called 'First to 15". Ask us how to play it if you want to learn...

The Big Sad Wolf Show

We were all treated with a special show today called The Big Sad Wolf.
It was a very funny show about a poor, misunderstood vegetarian wolf, who is blamed for eating sheep. But eventually the real culprit gets found out.

Here are some pictures ...




What a fantastic show. It was great to hear so many children laughing together.
