Visiting Author

On Monday we were so lucky to have Juliette MacIver come to visit us and read some of her books. She is a great author and we just loved the way she acted out some scenes from her book. We hope she comes to visit us again soon!

Inquiry Learning In Room 1

As part of our Inquiry learning we have started designing our very own games. We are designing them for people to play in the future. Some of us are designing games that are played on iPads and others can be played in real life. Watch this space to see what creative ideas we come up with.

The Very Hungry 🐛

Wow we had such a fun day in class today. We have been reading and listening to the Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle. To celebrate our learning we created a whole wall dedicated to the story. I feel really lucky to have such a great class who work together so well - Room 1 rocks!!!

Last Day Of Swimming

Last Day Of Swimming

Yesterday was our last day at the pool. We had a great time and we can't wait for next year to get back into the pool to learn some more about how to stay safe in the water. Thanks to all parents and caregivers for ensuring our tamariki had everything they needed to be successful in the water.

Squiggle writing in Room 1

I feel very lucky because in Room 1 there are a lot of fantastic writers.  They love writing interesting stories and I would like to share a few of them with you.  This week we wrote Squiggle stories and they start with, well a squiggle! The squiggle can be turned into ANYTHING you can think of! This is a great activity to be creative and to create a story based on something you've drawn.  Enjoy!

We had another great day at the pool. We are becoming more confident in the water - which is really important for our learning. We can't wait to go back tomorrow.
