World Cup Sports Day

What a fun day! Our teams were Australia 4 and 5. At the various stations we did: Tag games, soccer skills, athletic skills and rugby skills. A lot of us used our Kia Kaha spirit and supported and encouraged each other to give the activities a go.
The winner of Australia 4's free swim voucher goes to Lillia for trying her hardest at each station. Well done!
There is one more voucher and the winner will be announced soon. Stay tuned!

This term we have been writing reports about animals.

Kia Kaha (bullying)

This term we have been learning to have self control. We have been learning this through the programme Kia kaha which means be strong. We have been doing Kia Kaha for 7 weeks. For Kia kaha we have been doing rights and responsibilities eg We have a right to a tidy classroom and our responsibility is to keep it tidy.A  Police officer has came in and talked about making the right choice.
