End of Term Treat

Room 7 and 8 had a fantastic time on the Crazy Bikes. We have some very skilled riders! Well deserved team!

Sharing Time in Room 4

Today Rooms 7 and 4 got together to share all the things we have been learning to do on the computers. Room 7's focus has been on being able to log on to the schools internet, ABC Reading Eggs, and logging out correctly. Our big buddies in Room 4 have been fantastic at helping us with this. Room 4 showed us their awesome blog as well as how to add comments. While the students were sharing, teaching and showing each other what they can do I was able to learn a trick or two myself. Thanks so much Ms Mynes!  Imagine what we will be able to do by the end of the year!

Junior School Athletics

Well done Room 7. You all showed true sportsmanship at St Thomas School today. Here are a few snapshots.

Thank you to the parents who came along to help and support the students. A huge thank you to St Thomas School for organising such a fun event.

Natie shows everyone her high jump skills. Way to go Natie!

Look at the concentration on Archie's face!

Cassie gets some advice from Mum.

An awesome effort at the quoit throw Caitlin!

"Look at this team!"

Room 7 class members Matthew Gill, Kason Breen and Archie Bryan explain to Room 4 how we made our Korowai and what it means to us.

Room 7 Class Korowai

Room 7 began the year by creating a class Korowai (Traditional Maori Cloak) to symbolize things that are important to us as individuals and as a class. We incorporated our school values and discussed what they mean to us as learners. We also drew symbols that represent important things like our families, interests, and hobbies. It was a great way to get to know each other and establish a classroom environment where we feel safe, respected and valued. 
Last week we were able to share what we had done with Room 4 who had also created a Korowai. How fantastic! It was great to hear the explanations of both rooms. Ms Mynes and I felt very proud of what our classes have achieved.
