Numeracy - Caterpillar Legs

Today one of our math groups made legs for some caterpillars! Mrs Derrick gave us a caterpillar with a number on it and we had to put enough pegs on it so it matched the number.
Here are some of our caterpillars!

Athletic Sports Day

We had our school athletic sports day today. We took part in the junior rotation. We did Jumping for length and height with Mrs Derrick, Relay's with Mrs White, Throwing for accuracy with Mrs Togiaso and Throwing for distance with Whaea Heather.
We tried really hard at all of these things and had a lot of fun. At the end we had sprints and moonhopper races.

van Gogh inspired flowers

Look at these amazing pastel drawings based on artist van Gogh's famous sunflowers series.
The children took lots of time and effort to create these great pictures.
I think some of our 5 year olds could be the next van Gogh!
