Measurement - Length

In maths we have been talking about 'length'. Today the children designed a bridge for their gingerbread people to cross the river. They had to make sure their bridges were long enough to go right across the river so the gingerbread people would not get wet. Much safer than going on the back of a fox.

Swimming Day 6

We have been working really hard at swimming and making great progress. Thanks to all the parents who have been helping us to get to and from the swimming pool safely and helping us to get dried and dressed each day.

Buddy Class Visit

Today we went to visit our buddy Class  on the way back to Kindle 2 we had a ride in the hall lift.

Look at Mum

This week our word of the week was 'Mum'. The children illustrated the sentence 'Look at Mum'. I love the childrens' drawings. Does anyone recognise themselves?

Short Swim

Due to a small regurgitation incident while K1 were in the pool, K2 had a very short swim today. No one seemed to mind too much....

Swimming Day 1

Here we are ready to walk to swimming.... sunhats😀, safety vests😀, swimming bags😀, sandals😀, parent helpers😀😀. Off we go....

The Wild

Have you checked out the redevelopment of our playground. This is what I saw when I arrived at school just after 7.30 this morning.....

Patterns

We have been talking about patterns in maths. Look at all the patterns these girls have made on their peg boards. They worked on these for ages. Well done girls.

Road Safety

Mr Somerfield has been to visit us at school. He has been talking to us about road safety. Did you know that all children under 148cm tall should be in a booster seat?
He told us to walk on the fence side of the footpath; to watch out for sneaky driveways; to stop look listen and link before we cross the street and to wear a helmet that fits correctly if we ride scooters or bikes because it protects our brains. He asked the children to remind their parents to help them get out of a car on the footpath side, not the road side. Thanks Mr Somerfield.

Discovery Friday

The children in Kindle 2 were very busy at Discovery Time today and everyone helped to tidy up....... this made Mrs Dakers smile.

A new light in Kindle 2

The electricians from Aotea Electric put a new light in K2 today. It is an LED light and uses half the electricity of the old one.

Story Time in Kindle 2

Miss Klenner read the story "Mr Huff" to Kindle 2 today while they had their milk (or water).

Welcome to Kindle 2, 2017

Look at the cheerful children in Kindle 2. Our big book this week was called "'Smile' said Dad." Here we are practising our smiles because today is school photo day. Mrs Dakers took about 20 photos to get one where most people were looking at the camera.
