Our Rainforest Trip






I saw a waterfall at the rainforest and in the tunnel I saw some glowworms. I liked the tunnel and I learnt not to put your hand out the door.

I saw some glowworms and they glowed in the pitch black. I heard a waterfall.

I saw a big waterfall. I heard the trees blowing in the wind. I learnt where water comes from and water comes from the dam.

I saw a waterfall at the rainforest and we saw glowworms. We went through the longest tunnel and it was 567 metres. I heard the waterfall and lots of noises.

What a Busy Week!!




Last week was so busy! On Monday we had a new student teacher come to our class. Her name is Miss McDonald and once we had got over the excitement of her name being the same as a popular place where we like to go to eat with our families, we enjoyed having her teach us and help us in our learning.

On Wednesday we had the first of several weekly tennis lessons, on Thursday we went on our Rainforest trip to the Waitakeres and on Friday it was Funky Feet day and the day we performed in our assembly with Room 19.

Here are a few photos to whet your appetites.

We will be doing a lot of writing this week about our busy Week 2 so there will be many more photos to come once we have written our recounts for you to read on this blog.

Soccer with Room 16




Last Wednesday as it poured down with rain we had a soccer coaching session with Room 16.
We played games and had a chance to release some energy.
It was great to have a soccer ball each and to try and dribble the ball from one side of the hall to the other without getting caught.
