Meet Our Children Who Are Preparing For Confirmation

 These children are preparing to be confirmed by Bishop Michael later this month and then receive their First Holy Communion in September. They are starting to get excited about their journey as they learn more about how much Jesus loves them. Apologies to Libby who was away all last week when I took the photo.

Finn Shows us Her Lovely Art

 Finn made this lovely silhouette picture at her art class. We love the way that she blended her colours to make it look like a sunset and also her cool silhouette trees and wolf. Thanks for sharing Finn.

Now you see it, now you don't!

 Aria did a magic trick using a glass with a piece of carboard underneath it and a coin. She put the glass over the coin and then covered it with a tea towel. Hey presto the coin had vanished! Well done Aria.

More Cool Science News in Room 4

 Thomas had a plastic bag of water and got Luke to poke some skewer sticks through the bag. He promised us it wouldn't burst the bag but some of us didn't believe him but here are the photos.

Sharing our learning across School

 Thank you to Arden, Libby, Molly, Jorja and Olivia from Room 7 for showing us and telling us about the models they made of a wharenui. We can't wait till we see the real thing when we visit the marae at Karitane soon. The girls put a lot of effort in to their models.

 

Science News

 We have had some wonderful science news. Nash showed us what happens when he rubbed a balloon against a woollen sock and then held it over some small pieces of paper. The paper stuck to the balloon by static electricity. We rubbed the balloon on our hair as well. The paper still stuck to the balloon! 

Say No to bullying!

 Last week we dressed in pink to show our support for say no to bullying! There were some very creative get ups but the message was to stand tall and stick up for those who are being bullied!
