100 Day !!!

 For 100 day the Junior classes all worked together to see if we could collect 100 pet food items to donate to the SPCA. This is what 100 looks like.


The SPCA lady came in to tell us about what the SPCA does. She brought in Suzanne, one of their puppies, for us to meet. She was beautiful!

  We all gave her a pat.

  We took all the pet food down to her car.
Thanks for all the wonderful work you do at the SPCA. We hope this helps.















We also made 100 day collections for 100 day. Here are some of our collections.

 We made 100 day hats.

 Happy 100 day everyone!!!!!!

Today we had a welcome back to school hui. 
We all walked down to the hall but didn't go in. On the wall of the hall there was a big piece of plastic. What was underneath?

Maisy's July School holidays

Hat challenge with our buddy class

  What a great way to finish the term.
We had a hat challenge with our buddy class.

 We were in teams of four or five. We had to make a hat that would stay on your head when you were skipping.
We were given newspaper, tape, stickers, coloured paper, feathers and cellophane to make a hat.
We had half an hour to complete our hat.

  These are the end results.

                              Don't they look amazing!

 After the skipping test they were still on the heads. Well done everyone!

Disco

Blacko

This week our big book is "Let's See, Ling Lee."
It's about a girl who buys a goldfish for her classroom because they had two in their classroom and she had read that three goldfish were good luck.




We have two goldfish in our classroom, Goldie and Disco Ball.
We thought it would be exciting to get another one so that we had three goldfish for good luck.

So at lunchtime today Lily and Danielle walked down to the pet shop with Mrs Bloomfield to get us a new fish.

                      Here they are swimming in the tank.
                           Which one will they choose?

      Lily and Danielle chose a black one.
    The pet shop lady caught our fish with a little net.

She put our goldfish in a bag of water and we carried him carefully back to school.

  


We had to keep our fish in its bag, floating in the fish tank for 15 minutes before we could let him swim with the other fish.

In the tank!



We all had to decide what we would call our new fish.

In the end we all agreed to call our fish Blacko.


Welcome to Room 14 Blacko!

70 Day Our Taonga- treasures

This term the whole school have been looking at our treasures, our taonga.

So for 70 day the Junior syndicate decided to paint a big mural of 70 of our treasures. We had 70 square boards to paint them on.

There are 5 junior classes so each class had 14 boards to paint.

In Room 14 the treasures we have been looking at are our pets, so we painted fabulous pets.

Here are our fabulous pet paintings

 The rest of the Junior School painted their family, their friends, their special toys, and their own special treasures. Here are our finished 70 treasures.

This weekend our 70 day mural is going to be hung up at school. I wonder where it will be?
