Swimming

Room 4 have been working really hard on their swimming skills this term.  Look how awesome we are!

Learning to swim is COOL!

Some of us were learning to dive.

Competitive swimmers were in the BIG, deep pool!

This is Me Art

Topic this term is All About Me, so we have completed an art piece that shows us doing something we love.  First we took a photo of ourselves doing a fun activity.  Then we printed them out in black and white and traced around the details.  We then used dye to highlight ourselves and other details and then used felt pens to colour in using doodles.  It was great fun!  Take a look…

Christmas Hand Tree

Thank you to our buddy class for helping us make an amazing Christmas decoration - our hand tree. Merry Christmas.

Technology Triumph

Thanks to Dave for helping us cut the designs from plywood with the jigsaw.

Here are the wonderful finished product - Plant Labels! The design and prototype process was great learning and the finished product is amazing. Ka pai.

After screwing on the handle we had to apply an undercoat.

Author's Visit

The senior school was so lucky to have the author Stacy Gregg come to talk to us about being a writer.  It was very interesting hearing about how she creates her ideas - from her own experiences, just like we do!  After listening to Stacy tell us about her writing process, we realised that as writers we also plan out our stories, think about our characters, setting and the plot.  We are also beginning to go back and re-craft our stories so the reader is captivated by the writing.  It is wonderful to know we are on the right path to becoming awesome authors!
