Snow Day

Brrrrrr........ school was closed today because of snow. I hope everyone was keeping warm at home. Mrs Dakers walked down to school and put some signs up on the main doors to tell people that school was closed, then waited for a while just to check that no one was dropped off. This is what the junior playground looked like:

Cheese Please

Miss McClintock taught us the poem 'Cheese Please' by Jill Eggleton. We made some little mice and recited the poem.

I don't want fish
to eat, eat, eat.

I don't want spinach
and I don't want meat.

I don't want apples
and I don't want peas.

I am a mouse
and I want cheese.

Look what we made ...

Bubble Fun

 Wow, that bubble blowing looks like serious fun.

The Big Jazz Apple Crunch

 Today at 2.13 pm the children in the Junior Team gathered in Kindle 2 for the Big Jazz Apple Crunch. Children gave a gold coin donation which was for the KidsCan charity and got an apple to crunch.

Rosie's World

 Rosie the cow and friends visited George Street Normal School today. They helped us learn about dairy farms, cows and milk. It was a very funny show and a great introduction to the Fonterra 'Milk in Schools' programme which starts very soon.

Thanks Rosie!

Mana - The Spirit of Polynesia

Today we saw a dance performer called Bernard Mangakahia. In his performance, he showed us Maori, Samoan and American Indian dances.
