Good afternoon,

Well, if that was Week 7, we've had it.

This morning we started with a lovely wee Mass to give out bibles to families new to the school...sorta. Instead of giving bibles out to the Year 8s as they leave, we're now giving them to the Year 1s as they start. Including four of ours.

Aww!

After Mass, a touch of poetry...

...and...some other stuff...

Oh, by the way, I found this...


...from fitness yesterday.

Have a great weekend,

Mr Grant

No Photos Thursday

Good afternoon,

Not much to report really. I forgot to take out the camera. We did a spot of R.E. and sorted out who's doing what for the retell of the events that lead to New Zealanders fighting Turks at Gallipoli for the British...


...that I'm hoping that we can share with Room 6 on Monday.

Please note: full uniform for Mass in the morning,

ANZAC Origins Wednesday

Good afternoon,

This afternoon we took some time to talk about the origins of World War One, and why New Zealanders were fighting Turks at Gallipoli for the British.


We also compared and contrasted the culinary consumptions of Jesus and, well, us.


(And yes, I won the hangman!)

On a more light-hearted note, we some of us also read a little poetry.


And on an even lighter hearted note...


Oh to be that clever! I've only been able to pick out some of the main riff to Wipe Out, which Room 2 was Kids Zumba-ing to this morning.

Tuesday Brrrrr Day

Good afternoon,

It's been a bit of a nippy old day. Autumn seems to have arrived.

Speaking of blends...


...that was our focus for this morning's big book lesson.

Oh, and speaking of reading...

...Ma shared a perennial favourite with us The Hare and the Tortoise.

(I'll green screen it later...but...I've just received word that my TIE Phantom and Rebel Headhunters have arrived!)

After lunch Room 2 then stepped outside into the cool breeze for some P.E.






And a good time was had by all!

Happy St Patrick's Day,

Mr Grant

No Photos Monday

Good afternoon,

Well, we had a busy old day here today. So much so, that this was all I managed to capture!


During a spot of Kids Zumba inside, as it was a bit too damp outside for fitness, and...


...a spot of reading just before lunch.

I hope tomorrow's a touch drier!

Trip to the Air Force Museum

Good morning,

Now that we've established that we've got enough booster seats for everyone, the next question is who can take how many, when. So...


...in case you can't access the link I sent to you by email.
