Our first day in Room 3!

By -
Wednesday was our first day at school and what a fantastic day it was! We began by welcoming nine new children and their families to school. We then did some fitness, singing and mathematics. After morning tea we watched the powhiri and then we went on a tour around the school. This included visiting the school office, Mr Bird and Mr Skilton in their offices, the medical room, the staffroom, our friends in room 4 and our library. We then played outside in the different areas around our playground. After lunch we did lots of reading and writing in our classroom. Mr Bird then let us each choose a special book to keep to commemorate our first day at school. We ended the day with warm fuzzies about Superstar Sophie.

Last term Room 3 had Performing Arts lessons each week. They learnt lots of different dances. On Friday, they shared one of the dances that they had learnt at the Full School Assembly. The audience sang as they did the dance. We hope you enjoy it!

  Diwali. We have been working hard during our Inquiry time learning about festivals and celebrations.The Indian festival of Diwali is centred around Light so we have been busy using our collage skills to create beautiful candles. Collage requires Patience and Perseverance. Well worth all the hard work though!! .     We also painted our own beautiful D iva's-  small candles which are placed around peoples homes during Diwali.   Lights welcome the New Year and create a happy festive atmosphere. Come into Room 3 and see what you think!

We are enjoying working with Mrs Hooke doing Performing Arts on a Thursday morning-moving to music and learning to make interesting shapes with our bodies. We also enjoyed having some time on Friday to construct models using old boxes,egg cartons etc.When describing our models we tried to think of interesting words. We spoke clearly and listened to each other.Some of the models were constructed in teams and we all co-operated together.    It's so enjoyable to work together. Well done Room 3!
