Midnight Delivery


We were so lucky today to have Taea bring in her guinea pig Midnight. The kids absolutely loved being able to hold her and it was a great lesson in how to take care of small animals - perfect for our Living Things topic! 
Below are some pictures: 









BMP!

Every Tuesday we take part in BMP (Bledisloe Motor Program) where the students go around various activities so they can experience lots of different things. 
In this photo, Ruby, Autumn, Emma and Te Manakohia are showing off their amazing hula hooping skills!

Under The Sea

Thank you so much to all those families who donated some old CDs for us! 
We have used them to create some very colourful sea animals. 
The kids had so much fun making these and they look great hanging from our net by the fish tank. 





Rich Task Time


Every Wednesday with Mrs Stilwell the kids get to solve rich maths questions, they are getting better and better at this! Here is a photo of Emma using counters to help her solve the problem.
