Junior Team Trip to Hamilton Gardens    WEDNESDAY 23rd NOVEMBER

FINAL NOTICE!!!
All children and helpers need to be at school by 8.30 so rolls can be completed and any last minute instructions can be given. We will leave at 9.00 and be home by 3.00.


If your child is unable to come on Wednesday please ring the office before 8.30 .             Our time constraints are tight and we don’t want to waste time ringing home to find children.

The children will need the following items for this visit:
  • ·         All children are to be dressed in correct uniform .
  • ·         They will take their school hats with them.
  • ·         Suitable shoes for walking .
  • ·         Lots of food for morning tea and lunch and a drink (or 2)  of water.
  •           Items such as yoghurt would be better left at home on this day to avoid spillage!
  • ·         Children do not require money on the day and will not be visiting the shop.
  • ·         We will take sunscreen with us but if you can apply sunscreen at home this would be very helpful. We are expecting a very warm day on Wednesday.

If your child requires medication e.g. asthma inhaler, this should be given to the class teacher. The children will not be taking their bags with them as we walk so we cannot find their medication if needed if it is hiding in a school bag.  The teachers will have first aid kits if required.


If you have any questions please talk to your child’s teacher and we will be happy to help.

Week 5 Term 4 2016

This week we started to talk about what our sunflowers might look like when they have grown.
We looked at some photographs and we had to draw what we could see,not just what we thought. This was REALLY hard!

Next Mrs Finucane asked us to draw a really big sunflower head and use the correct colours... Some of us had several attempts but we didn't give up!











Here are our sunflower observational drawings...


Week 4 Term 4 2016

This week we had a visit from Michelle and Andy from More FM Corromandel who interviewed our class for their segment "Small talk" It was funny as Michelle asked us questions and we had to talk into Andy's phone . They put our answers together and we are now FAMOUS!It was cool for Kayla as Michelle is her aunty and Kayla's nana came to our interview too.

Week 4 Term 4 2016

We have had sunflowers growing in our room for 3 weeks now. We have had some grow weel,some are just sprouting and some,,,well nothing at all! 

Today we re-potted them because our seedlings need more good soil to grow in.
We are hoping to have our sunflowers ready for Christmas although they have a lot of growing to do yet!
