The Awesome Room 16 Team!!

Today we took some final class photos for the year, as well as some pics in the playground with our friends. Here they are:








Xmas on the Beach!!!

Hot sun, sand burning our feet, fizzy drink, popcorn and christmas crakers - what could be better?? Perhaps a real beach, but we did our best and had our christmas beach party in the sandpit today. It was very hot so it was a great day for the beach.






Early Maori Inquiry

This term we have been finishing off our inquiry into Early Maori. We decided that we would share our learning by making posters. Each poster had to include a title, a sub title, two pictures and two text boxes. Here are the fabulous results.

Catch Up TIme!!

Ok so we haven't updated the blog in a wee while so here is the latest Room 16 antics.

Last week was Book Week. On Wednesday we had the book parade. Everyone came to school dressed as their favourite book characters and they all looked great!! We had Santa, fairy's, witches, Zac Power, Harry Potter, Robin Hood, Slinky Malinki, super heroes and much more! Clifford the Dog made an appearance at the parade. It was fun. We had a "best dressed" competition in our class. Here are some pics of us in our outfits.

Today was celebration day and we had a christmas magic show from El Gregoe. He was very funny and he had two birds and a giant bunny as part of his magic tricks. Jake and Bella got to go up and help with the tricks. Jake got a balloon animal and he had one of the real birds on his head!! It was a cool show.









Today we also we had a giant bouncy obstacle course at school. We all got a turn on it this afternoon and all of whero house got to play on it at lunch time. It was good fun racing eachother through the tunnels and down the slides.
