We are ready for the big time!

Most of the men in Room 3 are wearing the most incredible smiles these days that may have something to do with the fact they are Runners Up in the Orr Cup for 2013. In a hard won final between Matamata and Kuranui we were sadly defeated but what a fabulous game with all the promise of the All Blacks vs France. Tumeke!. You made us proud!!

Making Slime

This week Room 1 joined us to try out our procedural writing. After an initial attempt we succeeded in making 20 pots of slime, ranging in colour from blue to deep green. Great stuff for a wet weekend!!
Thank you for being such cool learners Room1 and thank you to Bryoney who was fortunately on a Teachers Only Day from Hamilton Girls High.

Enviro Schools Workshop

On the 17th of May, a group of students went with Mrs Jones to the Enviro Schools Workshop held in Tokoroa with Amanda Jones. We explored how we could minimise waste in our school community and the benefits this would create for all participants in the community. Dylan, Bronlee, Kaitja, Danni, Calais  and Cody - James were all keen contributors and demonstrated great understanding of environmental systems. Well done! A big thank you to Mrs Storey and Mrs Van Gog for both the transport and the contributions you made to our learning.

Art Lessons with Mrs Jacobsen

While the mice were away...... Room 3 were treated to some of Mrs Jacobsen's  art lessons and they explored perspectives, scale and proportions on still life. They also learnt about warm and cool colours, line and shading. Well done Room 3, they look amazing!!!

But don't take my word for it....call in and see for yourselves!!!
