Finals Friday

Good afternoon,

We had two quite different finals' commemorations today.

The first was for the All Blacks, facing their final Rugby World Cup match on Sunday morning (NZ time)...

...and then a final farewell assembly for Mrs Earl. She has done wonders for the school and I know that the whole community will miss her, as well as wish her all the very best for the challenges that lie ahead for her at her new school.

Good luck Mrs Earl!


After morning tea we also said farewell to Harold the Giraffe of Life Education fame.

Who in turn, sang for us!


The rest of the day was spent Key Competentcying.

Have a great weekend,

Mr Grant

Tall Order Thursday

Good afternoon,

This morning, after a good discussion about the heart of the Gospel...

...we popped into the Life Education caravan to meet Harold the Giraffe...

...as well as learning some other interesting bits and bobs.

Then, once I got back from taking some choir children to the Cashmere View Retirement Village to help out at a wee church service that the Parish runs for the residents (once a term, I believe), we carried on with some of our regularly scheduled reading programme.

Oh, and this just in from the student council...

Hi everyone,

We, along with Hoon Hay school...and much of the nation...are having a Black Out day to celebrate The All Blacks getting into the Rugby World Cup finals.

Your children have to be dressed in black (or grey or white - alternative strip) or they come in their school uniform. Their shoes do not have to be black though.

Please, no face paint!

We will be out on Sparks Road shortly after 9 to show solidarity with Hoon Hay and the local community.

Have a great day!

Mr H.

See you all blacked out in the morning then!

Mr Grant

And speaking of the Gospel...

Book Thursday

I am reading on a iPad. I am reading Dragons, the book.

No Photos Wednesday...

...unless you count these of the choir at their practice for tonight's performance at Horncastle Arena.

As for Room 2, once I got back, well...to be fair, our afternoon was fairly...laid back!

Quick Post Tuesday

Good evening,

Just before I pop home...well...umm...there's not much to report concerning today really. We did, well, pretty much the normal things for a Tuesday. Including making a garage for reading...

...since some of us read about a garage sale.

Other than that...

Oh, I'm out with the choir in the morning tomorrow, so there will be a reliever at the con 'till 12:30.

Mr Grant
