Celebration

On Friday of Week 8 we had our Pukeko Celebration. We shared some of the learning we've done with Mrs Fourie during music.

Stop, look and listen

This week is travel week. We're looking at ways to travel to school in an environmentally friendly way. We identified that biking, walking and scootering are most friendly to our environment. Today Constable Glenys came to talk to use about the good things about walking to school. She also explained some ways to stay safe when you are walking. She helped us to identify some parts of the road. We learned a poem with her called Stop, look and listen. The Room 1 students acted it out and wanted to share it with everyone. Enjoy our poem

How to make a vegetable monkey

How to make a vegetable monkey.

First I put the head on. Next I did his ears. Then I put the hands on. After that I put the eyes on. Last of all I put the mouth on. When I was done I had a monkey.

How to make a vegetable hedgehog.

First I grabbed a potato. I really wanted to eat it, but it was not cooked. Then I got toothpicks. They are spickey. Next I put some corrots in but that wasn't enough. Last I made a nose with a raison and a carrot. At the end I made legs. I felt really proud of myself.

Pukeko Team

The Pukeko Team made two craft items for the gala. The year 2's made vegetable creatures and miniature gardens. The Year 3's made vaseline saucers and vegetable creatures. One item per year group was judged for the gala and one was judged as part of a Pukeko Team effort. On Friday Ms Harland announced the winners of the Year 2 vegetable creatures and the Year 3 Vaseline Plates. Here are the photo's of our mini-prizegiving and the winners from Rm 1.

I'll put winners of the Year 2's miniature gardens and Year 3's vegetable creatures next week on the blog.
