Fun Day Feast Day

Good afternoon,

Today was all about celebrating the Feast of the Assumption of Mary through a selection of Choose Kind activities...

(not all photos of which are in, so to speak, at the time of this post)

...and a Feast Day Mass. With ice blocks!

And a good time was had by all!

Thanks to the parents who gave of their time, or stationary and such, it was much appreciated by all of the teachers.

Have a great weekend,

Mr Grant

Flight Thursday

Good afternoon,

Today, after starting with a meditation on God's Word...

...we rocked on with maths and reading.

After lunch, and spreading thither and yon to discuss what Choose Kind activities everyone is involved in tomorrow. Should be cool.

Once back, we discussed rituals at church...

...and then popped outside to fly some planes.

Tomorrow is the Feast Day to commemorate the Assumption of Mary. After morning tea we'll be dispersing to one of 12 groups to do...all sorts of stuff. From gardening to baking to visiting rest homes.

After lunch - at 1:45 to be precise - we'll be having a whole school mass. (And so, please send the full uniform to school, as usual). Please join us.

Mr Grant

Fine Day, Sick Day Wednesday

Good afternoon,

Another day down in numbers today. 11 down, if the roll is to be believed.

Still, the few of us that were left (!) carried on like the Kiwi battlers we are...

First with some maths...

...fitness...where four taggers and eleven runners = a lot of unflushed toilets for toilet tag!!

Then some reading...

...where what remained of Ma Reading Group read Uira in Maori.

Well done that man!!

Kahurangi were also busy recreating the ghost from The Ghost and the Sausage.

I wonder how many we'll have tomorrow?

Mr Grant

Oh, and this.

Riddle Me Tuesday

Good evening,

This morning, after some meditation...

...and a bit of fitness...

...we had a big book lesson looking at blends.

Then Parakaraka Reading Group regaled us with Hairy Bear.


Which I'll try to green screen later.

Seven ill today, perhaps we'll only have six missing in the morning!

Mr Grant

Oh, and I was supposed to post this last night...

Sickie Monday

Good afternoon,

Well...we didn't have nearly as many here at school today as we usually do...

...because we've got 8 sickies!

Poor wee poppets!

So...we'll have to see who's here in the morning!

Mr Grant
