Week 3 Update

Kia Ora Whanau

Thank you to the parents who have offered to join us on our trip to the museum on Monday.  Thank you too in getting your consent forms back to me at such short notice.  Much appreciated. The forecast is for rain on Monday so please could you send your child to school on Monday with a raincoat.  Hopefully the bus will park outside the museum but with regular roadworks one is never too sure!

We loved having Dougal, the Worm Man, come into the class today.  We are now a lot wiser about all aspects of tiger worms from their appearance all the way through to their reproduction process!

Our clay bees are complete and the last few should be coming home tomorrow.  We have planted our bean seeds and are growing them under various conditions.  If all goes according to plan those seeds should be going home around Queens Birthday weekend!

Our printmaking has shown good progress.  Most children have made their design and are now completing their plate.  We will finish this process next week and then go onto our first crayon prints. Once we have mastered that we will then progress onto the dye.

We are all very excited about Winter Sport starting tomorrow.  All teams train on Tuesday lunchtimes and then matches take place each Friday afternoon.  It is anticipated that matches will go through to around week 4 in Term 3.

Some awesome bee stories have been written and we have also produced some bee stories on the i-pads.

We are looking forward to the Strike Percussion show on Tuesday.

Have a great weekend.  Wrap up warm
Nga mihi
Nigel
