Our SPCA visit

We are learning to write a report. 
A report has a title. 
                          It tells us about things that are true. 
      It says things in order. 

Here is our simple report about our visitors today.

Rangoil Art- Diwali 2013

Take a look at our Rangoli art    -  Diwali 2013

It was a lot of fun.  We experimented with using powder paint in a bid to be more authentic, but it did not stick to well.  We have preserved it in photographs.   

The children will report on it more soon…

Check out our colourful crayon scraping 
firework artworks

(sorry about the poor quality of some of the pics,  They were clear on the devise I took them with)

We are learning how to be safe passengers. 

We have to grow to 148 cm to travel safely in an adult seat belt without a booster. 

Many of us have a long way to go…  

Mrs Fong is only just tall enough but Marco and Luka’s dad is a lot taller...

Mission Day

Mission day was a lot of fun for us.  Our buddies from room 12 took us over to the stalls in the senior school.  We got to buy toys, books and lollies and we got to do some fun things.  At the end of the day we got together with the whole school on the field.  Some people won prizes.  It was a cool day!

Contemporary Maori Art.

To create our art pieces we began by looking at and discussing a collection images including, koro, Hei Matau and kowhaiwhai. 

Then we set to work using pastels so we could blend colour to make our own contemporary Maori art work.  Some of us chose to used black edging to make the symbols stand out.
