School Production - Fresh & Smooth - coming soon!

 

Children in Room 19 are busily (and excitedly) preparing for our whole school production, "Fresh and Smooth", on stage in the hall next week! You will have received notices about costumes, tickets, and performance times by now. Check out the blurb below for a sneak peek at the show...

"In a time when we all know that plastic is bad for our planet, two yoghurt containers, Fresh and Smooth, are carelessly separated and discarded. Follow their quest around Aotearoa New Zealand to find each other again".

Room 19 Runners - Cross Country 2021

Well done to all of the children who participated in the Puriri Cross Country during week 4. The event was 1.5km, through the beautiful Owairaka Park and alongside Oakley Creek.

Special congratulations to Leo, Peter, Spencer, and Lilou - who placed in the Year 3 boys and girls events.

 

Samoan Language Week 2021

 

Room 19 celebrated Samoan Language Week during week 5.

We learnt a siva dance, explored traditional Samoan items such as lavalava, coconut husk and its many uses, shell necklaces, and a beautiful siapo mat.

Our friend Hamida shared some delicious panikeke with us. We played the game "lape".

In the afternoon, we visited our buddy class (Room 6) and made some awesome, creative Samoan tuiga.

Our Poem for Winter

 

Room 19 wrote this amazing poem with Ms Whysall, on a cold and rainy Monday in term two. Thanks Ms Whysall for the inspiration!
