Our wonderful Grandparents and Grand-friends!

By -

What a lovely afternoon we had on Thursday! Our grandparents and grandfriends joined us at school for the afternoon. First we met in the hall and sang some songs including our school song to our special visitors. We were delighted that they had come from all over New Zealand and even from Australia and England to join us. We then escorted our visitors to our classroom. We showed our quality work to our grandparents and grandfriends who were very proud of us and then they showed us items that they had bought along to school. We then sat in a circle to find out what the grandparents and grandfriends had brought along. We were fascinated and so amazed at the stories and special memories that they shared. We then went outside and had a lovely afternoon tea together in the sunshine. We had such a great time together and we would love them all to visit again.

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!
