He spoke about the imprtance of reading to the school and then presented Duffy books to a child from each of the classes. Here is Justin recieving his book as well as others from our class with their Duffy Books. We are very lucky to be a Duffy School we enjoy getting the books.

The Great Race




Alice and Mitchell made boats from their recycled items. We decided to race them in the school pool. their ingenuity was the winner on the day.

Homework Project - Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle.


Our homework project was to design a toy and pencil holder out of recycled materials. Kaya was the first to finish

Interest Talk - Benson

Last week Mitchell's Dad brought in their pet dog Benson to show to the class. Benson is a Golden Labrador. He is nearly two years old. Mitchell has had Benson in his family since Mitchell was seven. They got Benson from the SPCA. Benson was very friendly in our class and seemed to look very happy around the children, as the photo shows

How time flies when your having fun
















So much has happened since the end of last term it's hard to say where to begin. Three weeks in to the term and we have had the Winter Warmers, where the children were treated to pumpkin soup for lunch. We had Te Wiki o te Reo and last week was an amazing day with Queen Charlotte College having the Wearable Arts followed later in the afternoon by Southern Jazz Jam Festival by Secondary Schools from around the South Island. Here are some pics.
