365 - a delicious breakfast everyday of the year

During this term Rooms 3, 6 and 5 have been working together to produce their very own breakfast cereal. R6 are making the product, R3 are packaging it and R5 are marketing it.

The ingredients we have used for the cereal are granola, puffed rice, mango, yoghurt covered raisins and sweetened with stevia and honey.

If you would like to purchase our cereal we will be selling it in Week 9 at 8.30 outside the school office. The price is $6.

We appreciate your support and all profits raised are going towards the school art space.

This is kitty cat.

We pushed it to the limit and we were great

6sess by name and 6sess by nature. What a talented bunch we are. I was so impressed by the whole class today. All their practising came together to create a brilliant performance. It was so difficult to get the hang of the ball skills as well as the dance but didn't they look fantastic. I was so excited all the photos are a bit blurry but here's the day with a bit of back stage stuff as well. We shared a dressing room with room 3 so it was packed but they all kept busy and managed themselves so well. I am very proud of all of them. Sleep well and see you tomorrow.

James is broken

James has fractured his collarbone and we were lucky enough to get to see his xray. Can you see how the bone along the top of his shoulder, his collarbone, has a snapped? But not all the way through. He has to wear a sling so the bone gets a chance to mend itself. Brave James.

Imagine

Imagine if your building blocks could make a house you could play in....well now they can. We have now got a set of "Imaginz" building blocks. If you can make with Lego, or k'nex or Meccano then you can make with this. But it is giant sized and makes real size houses etc. We had it out today thru the wet lunchtime and into the afternoon to see how it worked and practise our kotahitanga. The kids were amazing - all 26 of them building the same house but in little groups all working on different parts.  A hive mind!!!  Check out the pics....and roll on the next wet day.

Shannon's car

Shannon has been writing his autobiography. He likes drag racing. Shannon says"this is a paper car I made."

James is mouldy!

James ' big sister has been learning about mould in her class so James had ago at growing some at home too. He found out that the bread grows all sorts of mould. Jacob said" it turned green!" He had to add some water to make the mould really start to grow. When the sun shone on it it started to sweat. Just like real plants the moulds are different colours and shapes. Yuck but cool!!!
