Our Surprise

When school started I walked into class and suddenly I saw a huge enormous Orca Whale sitting up on the top of my class room. I felt very excited then I looked up at the wall and I saw a green stingray. It was spectacular and I felt even  more excited. Mrs Steedman came in the room and said that our class is now called H20 Extreme!!! I felt very excited with that name.

Our Assembly Item

We had an assembly item two weeks ago. We chose the story called 'Peacock gets a job' because we thought that Peacock used persistence (one of the Habits of Mind) when he tried all the different jobs. We really enjoyed our performance except Mrs Steedman said we shouldn't have laughed so much! We are going to put the video of our performance on our Blog so that everyone can watch it.

WHO CAME TO VISIT?

Today we had Mr Frank Bunce (a former All Black) and people from The Westpac Rescue Helicopter and the Westpac bank visit our school. Mr Bunce answered questions about when he played rugby and also told us why the Westpac Rescue helicopter service is so important. They help alot of people and save alot of lives! What an important job they do! We even got to listen to one of the helicopter pilots and he told us what equipment they have in the helicopter and what some of the equipment is used for. We really enjoyed our special assembly and meeting our extra special guests! WOW!

WELCOME BACK TO TERM TWO

Welcome back to Term Two everyone. I hope you all enjoyed your holiday time. We have a new look in our class and a new class name. We are the H20 Extreme team. The students all got quite a surprise to see Stingy and our Whale (yet to be named) hanging from the roof! We are enjoying our new environment and if you haven't seen it already, come in and have a look.
