Week 8 Term 4



On Monday, we planted our little gardens. We are enjoying watching our plants start to grow - Sam's has started to sprout already!!!











On Tuesday, we had the children who are starting in Pikopiko next year come and visit us.
We also wrote letters to Santa and posted them. We look forward to his reply!!






On Wednesday, we read the Maori legend - Rata and the Waka. Then we collaged our own waka - come and have a look at them on the wall in the Volcano.







On Thursday, we had the senior Enviro kids come and talk to us about the vision for our school grounds. We got to play lots of fun games. In the afternoon, we made advent bells with 24 loops. Each day before Christmas we can cut off a loop and see how many days until Christmas.












On Friday, we had a great discovery time - playing in a band, making with boxes, colouring with quiver and doing construction activities.







What another busy week.....only 2 more to go!
