Wonderous One 2012

Hi everyone,
Welcome to 2012. It will be great to see some old and some new faces in Wonderous One this year. I can't wait to get to know you all and start our amazing learning journey.
I hope you have all had a good holiday with not too much rain and wind. I went to Lake Taupo and hardly swam at all. It was a bit disappointing but still relaxing.
I can't wait to get started!!
Mrs Hill

Week 2 term 4

Welcome back to term 4. We have been pretty busy over the last two weeks.
Last week we spent four afternoons at the B and M centre doing sports coaching skills with some UCOL sports students. We played touch, netball and volleyball. The games and activities were heaps of fun.
This week we have been having sessions with Constable Emily and Constable Sue to learn about bike safety. On Monday we will go on our road ride.
It was a great opportunity on Tuesday to walk to Intermediate Normal and watch their producton of Beauty and the Beast. IT was fun but very hot!
We also have 5 new year fours as new members of our class.
We have also worked hard on some end of year testing in spelling math and reading.
So it has been a busy couple of weeks!

Activity Auction

Today we hac an activity auction. We had to use our hard earned wonderous one dollars to bid on activities. After lunch we were able to play our activities for 30 minutes. It was heaps of fun!

Duplo, bionicles, painting, computers, ball throwing outside.,brainbox electrics, cards, marble race way. The most expensive activity was bionicles with a bid of $70.

Check out our calendar art that you could purchase after the holidays. They look pretty awesome!

Market to Market

We have been going to different classes for market to market. In the classes we have been making products to sell on market day. We had to choose the area we would work in.

Room 4 - food

Room 1 - paper crafts

Room 2 - competitions and service

Room 11 - kit making

Room 12 - jewellery

I joined Room 2 and my group is doing pyramid throwing competition called Throw and Hit.

We are creating lots of different products. Here are a few photos of some of our creations.

Te Papa Trip

We are a bit late with this post but on August 31st we went on a team WISE trip to Te Papa. Thank you to all the parents who came to support us. It was a fun packed day from the bus trip to exploring through the different floors of Te Papa.

I really enjoyed the touching the waterball in the entrance. C.S.

I really liked the golden days movie because of the moving figures. T.M-A.

The bush walk was cool because there was a cave. a waterfall and a bridge. C.V. and J. L.

The stone skeleton in the sandpit was awesome. J.P

Black and Yellow Day

Today we had black and yellow day, our school colours, to celebrate the beginning of the rugby world cup. We made a long banner for the parade. Check out our classroom window for a rugby world cup message. Four of our class made a large CNS world cup jersey. We think they did an awesome job especially with the patterning that they used.
