Week 6 Term 4

Hi everyone,

I'm really looking forward to teaching you again for the last three weeks of term. Your Amazing Race efforts have been great so far, and the leading team has changed each week so it will be interesting to see who wins the top prize in week eight!

We have HEAPS to do over the next few weeks - our kindy visit is next Tuesday morning, we have a class magazine to produce and we need to plan and prepare a class item for our year seven sharing assembly too! I'm also looking forward to seeing your chameleon art work finished this week - photos on the blog soon :)

Have a great week,
Mrs F :)

Week 3 Term 4

Hi everyone,

This week it's EGYPT for the Amazing Race! I'm looking forward to seeing some impressive presentation ideas this week, like Nicola's fabulous effort with South Africa last week.

Your speech should be written by now and you should be doing some practice for Tuesday - think about whether you want to volunteer yourself to get it over and done with first or if you want to wait for your name to be drawn out of the hat :) Remember it needs to be on cue cards not big pieces of paper.

I'm looking forward to seeing what our visitors from the Royal NZ Ballet have in store for us tomorrow too.

Have a great week,
Mrs F :)

Rock climbing at Long Beach

What a fabulous day out! I was so proud of everyone for having a go at rock climbing, and for the fantastic behaviour and efforts from everyone throughout the day. We couldn't have done it without the help of our fabulous parents Anita, Alison, Mark and Jacqui too. What was your favourite part of the day? Let us know by leaving a comment with your name. Here are some photos from the day too:

Week 3 term 4

Hi everyone,

I missed you on Thursday and Friday, but heard GREAT rumours about how well you worked and how great your Japan work for The Amazing Race looked! This week it's SOUTH AFRICA so stay tuned for what this week's roadblock will involve...Your points will be updated by the end of tomorrow.

Mr Beaman is teaching for the next three weeks. Rockclimbing is (hopefully) on on Tuesday...listen to More FM and/or check the blog after 7:30am to see if it's cancelled due to the weather out there. Remember lots of food and drink, warm and cool clothes, sunblock etc. I still need more parents too please...

Have a great week,
Mrs F :)

Amazing Race - Japan

Well done to Aaliyah and Ben for winning today's chopstick race! They were the quickest boy and girl to successfully transfer 20 jelly beans from one bowl to another - nice work!
