Lessons at The Boys and Girls Gym Club!

This term we have had four sessions at The Boys and Girls Gym Club. We have learnt how to land safely and use a range of equipment. In our last session we learnt how to do cartwheels. Cartwheels are not so easy to do.

Carlton School's Technology Expo!

We had an amazing technology expo at our school. We were in charge of our own stalls. We told people about online literacy programmes and what we do with digital photography. We had lots of visitors and really enjoyed showing all of the fantastic things we do at our school.

HAROLD

Today we visited Harold the giraffe. We were learning about social relationships. I have never seen Harold before so I was excited. After that we played a game that included bucket fillers and bucket dippers. Bucket fillers were helpful and bucket dippers were mean. We had to pick a card and see if it was mean or helpful. After we watched a video of Billy goes to school. Billy didn't want to go to this new school but he had to because his mum moved to Wellington.

Museum Trip

Last week we had a trip to the Whanganui Museum to learn about Puanga and the stars. We went into the cosmodome and flew through space. It was a great adventure!

Being a teacher in Room 1!

In Room 1 we got to be teachers. We had to teach a friend how to play a new math game.

$5 For Nepal

At Carlton School we had a challenge day last Friday. We were raising money for the people of Nepal. In our class we had to persist and run for 10 minutes without stopping if we could. It was hard and some of us had to stop because we got really tired. We enjoyed the challenge and we think that it was for a very good cause. Our school raised nearly $1000 dollars!

Hockey Lessons!

We began our hockey lessons last week. We learnt how to hold the stick properly and also how to pass the ball. We had a game and as you can see it was great practicing what we had learnt.
