School Trip- Week 3, Term 2

On Friday in week 3, Term 2 we went on a school trip to Imagination Station, on the tram and to the Spectrum exhibit at the YMCA.

We loved our trip! 

We were excited to get on the bus. 

Check out the big smiles on our faces.

 We really we enjoyed what we were doing! We had to build a setting for our Lego figurine. Some of us made spaceships and cars and others made buildings.

Callum and Olivia shared their settings with the class. 

Callum made a submacar (a car, submarine). He made up the word to go with his design. His figurine drove into the water to Australia.

Olivia made a house and her figurine was trapped inside. She made some stairs which led to some gold.

Some of our designs. 

We worked together as a group to make a bigger setting. This was the winning group who got to share. They made a maze which led to treasure. They worked well together. 

Then got to put the crown on Ted.

After Inagination Station we went on the Tram around the city and to the YMCA Spectrum exhibit. 

One news filmed us. We were excited to be on TV. 

We made it to the Spectrum exhibit. 

The exhibit was amazing. There was a lot of colour.

We then got back on a different tram to head back to the bus.

We saw some wizards.

The day was great! We were all very tired after. 

The man on the Tram and some tourists said we were the best class in all of Christchurch because we were so well behaved and quiet on the Tram. This made us feel very proud!

Term 2, week 2

We have had a great start to Term 2! 

We had 5 new people join us in Room 1. It is exciting to have some new friends to play and learn with. 

On Friday we have Show and Tell. We can bring in something interesting to share or share some talking news.

We have been learning to ask questions. Good questions start with who, what, where, why and how.

When are we are talking we are trying to speak in a loud clear voice so everyone can hear us. 

When we are listening to someone talking we need to be looking at them and sitting nicely so we concentrate on what they are saying. 

We love show and tell on a Friday! 

Anzac Day, week 1 Term 2

On Friday we had a special Anzac service at school in the hall. 

We then walked over to the memorial at Sheldon Park to lay the wreaths we made and have 1 minute of silence to remember those we lost. Those people faught to make our world a peaceful place for us to live. We wore Poppy's to help us remember them and show our support.

It was a lovely service. 

On Friday we also did the Anzac Ode in class for us to take home in our poetry books.
