Today we had a visit from a much-loved member of Mrs Forbes' family. Their Giant Flemish rabbit, called JoJo. He was huge! We all got to give him a pat, and some of us brushed his very soft fur. Mrs Forbes brought the leash they use with JoJo, and he had a little hop within our circle of people.
Thanks, Mrs Forbes, for bringing JoJo to visit. We loved seeing him.
Today was also Pizza Making Day! Yep - you heard right. We made pizzas. Little ones. But they were tasty. We put sauce on the bottom, and had the choice of ham, pineapple and cheese to put on top. Most people put all three toppings on, while others chose put only one or two toppings on their pizza. Whatever we chose, we loved making, and eating, our own little pizza.
I wonder what we'll make next time!
Today we were allowed to wear mufti to school. If we could, we were asked to wear something purple to support Epilepsy Awareness Day. Here are some of the children in Rooms 13 and 17 who wore mufti. What a happy looking group!
Today Rooms 13 and 17 were the stars on PENN (Pt England News Network). We thought you might enjoy meeting some the Treasures of the New Entrants and Year Ones.
Our school value for this year is Cherish Our Treasures - Tiaki Taonga. We are all treasures to be cherished. Enjoy our movie.
This morning we helped Mrs Shirley, Mrs Forbes and Miss Hockly make Apple and Pear Crumble. We helped chop the pears. While they were cooking, we put the flour, brown sugar, rolled oats, and butter into a bowl to make the crunchy crumble.
Once the apples and pears were cooked, Mrs Shirley put them into a dish and sprinkled the crumble over the top. Then she put it back into the oven. Once it was cooked, we got to eat it with some ice cream too. It was delicious! We are clever bakers!
Here are a few photos of us cutting the pears, mixing the ingredients, and also a short video of us eating our delicious apple crumble. Yum, yum....YUM!
Yesterday we had lots of fun doing fitness with Miss Vaafusuaga. We loved having the choice of which exercise we wanted to do. Thanks, Miss Vaafusuaga. We hope we can do this again sometime.
Enjoy our short video.
Today was our schools' day to spend at the beach. Everyone walked down to Pt England Beach for a fun time playing on the sand, in the water, and on the grass and park. We are blessed to be so close to the beach. Some parents came along too, and had fun with their children. Our trips to the beach are always the best! We were all very tired when we got back to school, and were looking forward to going home. Even Miss Hockly and Mrs Shirley were feeling like having a sleep! 😀 💤
