Kiwiana Kidpix

Today we used the laptops to write our names and draw a picture. We had to draw something that reminded us of why we are special in New Zealand. You might have to look sideways at this, sorry!

Shape Explorers

This week we are being "Shape Explorers" in our class. We are learning to find shapes around our school and to follow directions to get to them. Here we are beginning to find some shapes that will be useful when we go exploring!

William's Fotobabble

William writes wonderful stories. Please listen to him reading his story about QT's sleepover at William's house. QT goes home with someone in our class every night. He has had some amazing adventures including a trip to Australia, and a ride on a horse. William had a picnic with QT.

Buddies

All the Year 1 children have a Buddy from the senior classes. They are sent a letter at home welcoming them to our school and include some of their interests or hobbies. The buddies become a friendly face in the playground, and they listen to reading, make special occasion cards and help the younger children at sports events such as the triathlon or the upcoming Fun Run.
Merrick is reading to his new buddy Hamish.


Jackson and Toby find a common interest in books.
