It's the start of another school year. We have all had a wonderful holiday over the summer and we are now ready to get back into school routines and focus on our learning again. We are lucky enough to have an American student teacher with us for 6 weeks this term. Her name is Kristin Brown and she is from Iowa.We are looking forward to working with her.
Puppet Show
We have already had a very busy start to the year. We have watched a puppet show called "Peter and the Wolf" which we all really enjoyed. The puppets were made of foam rubber which made them light and easy for the puppeteers to manipulate. We learnt a lot about the different musical instruments that were used for various characters.
David Beckham, watch out!
George Campbell came over from Nelson to do some soccer coaching with our class. He taught us lots of new skills and how co-ordinate both of our feet. It's amazing how many tricks he could do with the ball! He is going to visit our school every Wednesday for the next 3 weeks.
I think Da
vid Beckham and Ronaldo better be careful, we are a very talented bunch!Up...up...and away!
Our new classroom arrived at the end of Week 1. We all went out and watched it being hauled into place with a huge crane. It will become Room 2 and Mrs Nicholls will be teaching in there once they have painted and refurbished it.
The classroom had to be lifted very carefully using thick steel cables and then placed gently on
top of the foundations. It was nerve wracking to watch, we thought it might land in the swimming pool!
