Our environment
 |
| Hard at work cleaning up after we'd cleared out the old plants in our front garden. Hopefully the watering system will go back in and we'll be able to plant again. |
 |
| Gorgeous chickens shared with the class- thank you! |

Science Van visit

Bubbles are made for blowing! Sophia helped; the ingredients can be smelly and adding different chemicals causes different reactions. We can't wait to make our own- watch this space.... |

Opepe
Team Three's Opepe trip By Matthew.
Team three set off for an adventure to Opepe and Rooms 12, 11, 15 went across the road first, so Rooms 10 and 9 went another way. Off we went, everyone was excited! As time went by people got tired. Some people were still on their feet. I actually liked it.One reason was because my Dad was right by my side. The Napier/ Taupo highway is fast and busy, there was lots of trucks. When we reached the grave sites we had morning tea, it was very interesting.I loved the graves, there was one hidden grave in the bush- it was exciting!
At the log pit we had lunch, it got informative.

A week in Room 9
Here are some of our activities over the last week- we have also emptied 54 Enviro bins for the school; set up 3 old computers to use in our classroom ( donated by Mrs Derbie's class); started a week long Waikato maths Sumdog competition (we are coming second at this stage!) Remember your togs and towel on Monday Room 9- we have two weeks of swimming lessons starting!  |
We have shared our speeches all week and the semi finalists will be judged on Monday. These are two of our boys with a beautiful amethyst crystal that was brought to school to share with the class. |
 |
The cross country race was on Wednesday. Room 9 trained hard and should be so proud of their incredible success- Huge congratulations to all of our runners! |
 |
Calendars are underway- everyone posed and now the planning of the background can begin. |
 |
Our assembly item was a lot of fun to prepare for. It was also a great way to learn the 4x and 7x tables! Mrs Gibson was proud of her class and says 'Thank you' for the effort put in to entertaining the school community. |
