Awesome Aotearoa!

We're learning about New Zealand history. We've been finding out what it was like in New Zealand before the first people arrived. Emily talked to her parents about what we'd been reading and her mum gave her some more information on giant weta and moa to share with the class. Jack B took some photos of Emily telling the class what she'd found out.

Gymnastics

On Tuesday we went on a bus to gymnastics. We acted like dominos with Rose. We jumped on the trampoline and we swung on the bars. We also climbed the rope. I was pretty close to the top. We acted like monkeys. We made lots of noise. We went on the beam. It was awesome on the way back. I sat in the front. We went past my house. When we were waiting for Room 6 we went to the park. It started to rain. We got back on the bus. The rain was pretty heavy.

Today Emma Y brought her dog Fergus. He is black and white and he is ten weeks old. He is really cute and really soft. He ran to me and went on my knees. He went under my legs. When I said, “Shake hands,” he put his paw on my hand and I had heaps of fun.

My Holiday

In the holidays it was my birthday. For my birthday party we went to Laser Strike. You have  to shoot people in the other team. You need to shoot them four times quickly before their shield powers up. If you manage to shoot them four times quickly you get about 60 points. My sister who’s about four and one third got 180 in her first level! It was the best birthday ever.

Lily and Molly

Today Kate’s baby sisters came. She loves them because they are her baby sisters. I got to hold Lily and she is cute. Kate got to hold Molly and got to have her photo taken. We all had a turn to hold Lily and Molly. Kate’s other sister was there too. I had fun.

Pet Day

We held a Pet Day to celebrate Right Choice Day at the end of Term 2. It was great fun. Mr Deadman took these photos of the lady from the Kennel Club and her dogs.
