St Johns Visit

We had a great time today when Max the paramedic came to visit us. He brought his ambulance!

What did you see inside the ambulance?

Why do the ambulances sirens make different noises?










Who are our junior paramedics?

Why do the paramedics wear hard hats when they go to an accident?

Leadership Week.

Room 6's Buddy Time.

This week is leadership week. We are growing leaders in Room 6 and Room 7. Today we spent time with our buddy class.  It was awesome listening to our buddies read to us and hear their amazing stories they have done during writing time. 

We all learnt to play Capture the Flag.

What was the thing that you enjoyed the most today during buddy time today and why did you enjoy it?

Te Puna Quarry Park Trip.

We had an amazing time on our Te Puna Quarry Park trip. We enjoyed our walk through the bush and we saw some amazing pieces of art and some cool musical instruments. 

A huge thanks to all the parents who helped us on the day.

Beautiful Butterflies - we saw so many butterflies. The butterflies seemed really happy with their home at Te Puna. Did you know that monarch butterflies only live for approximately 2 weeks.

We saw all these shoes tied onto this bridge. Where do you think all these shoes came from? Maybe there is a giant centipede who lives at the park and he is getting rid of all his old shoes. Where do you think the shoes have come from?

Slime

As part of our writing experience we made slime. We had to think of adjectives that could describe our noun slime.

What adjectives can you use to describe our slime? Remember what it looked like, felt like and smelt like.
