We have been learning how to roll, throw and kick accurately during PE this term.

Out and about to Portsmouth Street Kindergarten

We went and visited our friends at Portsmouth Street Kindergarten this morning. Mrs a Derrick made this iMovie of our walk through our community.

This iMovie is dedicated to Squeak the rat.

Fraction fun

Miss Haines is teaching us how to find fractions in shapes.

Here we are using play dough to find wholes, halves and quarters.

Visiting the Aranui ELC

Today we had our first visit of 2014 to the Aranui Early Learning Centre which is right across the road from our school. Lueqis, Summah and Salem used to attend this kindy. We saw Janae who is starting in our class next week. Summah had fun doing Helen's hair. Lueqis played with his friend Tyler and the rest of our class's enjoyed playing outside on the equipment and doing some art.

We are looking forward to some children from the ELC who are visiting us next week with their teachers.

Learning about length

Our awesome student teacher, Miss Haines, has been teaching us about measurement.
Today we used Gingerbread men outlines to find objects in our classroom that were bigger and smaller than our Gingerbread men!

Learning in the sun!

Today it was a lovely autumn day after almost a week of cold weather so we took our learning outside on the verandah to enjoy the sun. The seagulls looked over us from the roof!

Duffy Theatre

Today we had the Duffy Theatre come to school today!
