Golden Time Week 4

It has been hot in our classroom in the afternoons lately.  Ms Nelson brought in a fan to cool us off but we thought a waterslide would be better.  So far no one in our class has lost Golden Time.  That means we get 30 minutes each Friday to choose something fun for our class to do together. 

We thought this looked like a lot of fun!

Tuesday's Promise Liturgy

On Tuesday morning we had a very special liturgy at school.  Everyone in the entire school wrote promises to God for Lent.  Mrs Rush took all of the promises and burned them.  She added them to the ashes from the palms we used last year during our donkey parade.  All of the ashes were then blessed by Father Mark and were used for Ash Wednesday. 

Golden Time in the Glorious Sunshine!

The weather has been amazing so far this term at school. 

Every Friday afternoon our school celebrates excellence in behaviour with 30 minutes of "Golden Time".  This week everyone in Room 2  was involved and we decided to have a fun water fight on the field.  Room 5 did the same thing. 

The best part was our Principal  was there...we completely soaked him!  Ms Nelson was safe behind the camera.

We can't wait for next Friday!

Waitangi Day Research Fun

This week Room 2 researched and then made dioramas to retell the history of why we celebrate Waitangi Day in New Zealand.  Our dioramas had to show (through our art skills) who, where, when and what.
