Cross Country

What a great day we had on Friday for the annual Cross Country! We waited with anticipation for our turn to run. Finally the time arrived.
"On your marks ... get set ... GO!" yelled Mrs Simpson. And we were off!  Up hills, down hills. Over thistles and through the muddy creek. It was impossible not to get muddy, but I don't think any of us were that worried.

Well done Sarah  for coming third in the Y4/5 girl's race!
Well done Max, for winning the Y4/5 boy's race - with Jordan coming second and Fraser third.

Well done everyone for putting effort into your training and giving it heaps on the day.

Back To School

It's term 4 and this term is a busy one! School cross country is only NEXT Friday.
Next Wednesday is Pet Day, and we have been busy creating some creative artworks which will be displayed in the hall.

As part of our Reading programme, we will be doing plays in front of our class. It's lots of fun and it's a great way to practice - projecting our voice and using expression.

Here is Mawhero reading group doing their play today ...
