Room 25 learning how to play basketball

The students of Room 25 are so lucky to have 2 fantastic coaches from Kiwi Sport visiting them every week to teach them how to play basketball. 

Kara and Susan creating their own mural of butterflies and fairies and love and hearts and.....

Kara and Susan got inspired to make this mural after hearing all the students in Room 25 read their stories about fairy bread. Well done girls I can't wait to see the finished product.

Fairy Bread

Room 25 have had a busy week making fairy bread and having even more fun eating the fairy bread. Some of the students have spent all week writing a story around their fairy bread and they are awesome.  Log on to their individual blogs to check their stories out.

Unicorn Quest

Room 25 is writing about this cool picture. We are learning to add descriptive words to our writing to make our writing more exciting for those reading it. For some children we wrote 2 simple sentences together and for other students they wrote some fabulous stories independently. So please check them out and leave them a comment.

ANZAC

Room 25 have been learning all about the ANZAC's. To celebrate this special event we decided to make a mural of ANZAC Cove to remember our brave soldiers who went off to War. The students have all done some fantastic Kidpix and stories around ANZAC so please visit their blogs and leave them a message.

Welcoming the Hokulea to Point England Beach

The schools in the Manaiakalani cluster were honoured yesterday to welcome the Hokulea and the Hikianalia to Point England Beach. These voyaging canoes are sailing across Earth's oceans to promote a growing global movement toward a more sustainable world. The voyage will also highlight diverse cultural and national treasures and the importance of working together to protect them.

 Here are just a few snippets from an unforgettable morning.

The Rat By Norah-Jade

First thing Friday morning we found Roger the Rat dead under the tree. After that we got Ms Eadie to look at it and she took a photo. The Mrs Garden came to chuck it in the rubbish bin. Now Roger is gone.

Valessa's story about the year 5-6 camp

Year 5-6 are going to have a sleep over at school. They are lucky that they are having a sleep over at school on the field. They have many tents and a large tent for eating bbq. They are split up into teams going swimming and kayaking.

Eva's beautiful story on year 5-6 camp.

Year 5-6 are sleeping in many tents. They are going to sleep over-night. They are making a large tent and the large tent will be for the kitchen and it is for eating to. They got split up into teams. They are so lucky because they get to play ping-pong and do jump jam and sing songs and swim and do kayaking.
