Term 3

Hi

Welcome back to Term 3!!

We have lots happening this term.
Firstly we are welcoming our new principal Mr. Muthoo. We will have a special powhiri welcome for him on Monday at 10am.

This term our focus is on Hauora - health and well being of our whole body.  We will look at our values, feelings and emotions, friendships, food, nutrition and exercise.
I will keep you updated with trips, diary dates, and of course all the amazing things that happen in our class.

There has also been a change with our class blog as this term we are trialing individual class blogs!! You can locate these down the right side of this blog. My students have so loved writing for the blog and for others to read that we ended up with too much for one blog! I look forward to supporting them as they create their blogs and write about things that are meaningful to them. We will also update the class blog with things we are doing. It is so nice for the students to receive comments on their work from their friends and family and makes their writing more meaningful. Please feel free to look at the different blogs and make comments. (All comments are moderated so may not appear immediately!)

I look forward to meeting with you at our up coming students conferences next week. Naomi

Ice on the slide

This morning we found ice on the slide. It was so cold last night that the water on the slide turned into ice! There was frost on the ground that made the grass look white. When I came to school I stepped on the grass and it went crunch! The grass was so frosty even the ducks didn't want to walk on it. My breath looked like I was puffing out smoke because it was so cold my breath was freezing. Lots of my friends came to school wearing hats and gloves and scarfs. Even my teacher. I hope it warms up soon because I don't want to be freezing.
