Rugby League Skills

This week we had Benson from 'Rugby League Northland' come into our school to teach us about this exciting contact sport.  We learn't about the importance of warm-ups, how to hold the ball (in a hamburger hold), and how to run with a ball.  Here is a picture of me doing the Hamburger hold.

Butterfly garden expert visits

Today we had another visitor in our classroom.  This was Julie from Enviro-Schools, She came into our class as a way of supporting us in the inquiry topic, that has our classroom buzzing with ideas about why and how plants are important.  

Today we learn't lots about butterflies, caterpillars and swan-plants, along with ideas that we can use to help create our butterfly and bee sanctuary.  We liked how you agreed with us, that we should set up a separate area, and you gave us lots of other ideas too on why and how we could make this happen.  WE ARE SOOOOO EXITED!

Thanks Julie, we look forward to receiving your package in the mail to support our Room 4 (Year 1) learners.

Today Kayla found a butterfly and shared it others at lunch time, before setting free in our garden again.
