Congratulations Sinan

Well done Sinan, you were our certificate winner at Green Week Assembly.

Sinan is a super role model for our Year 2 buddy class when we do yoga together. Sinan is patient and relaxed in yoga, and he works to make his legs and core strong by holding poses for an extra long time.

Remember, just because we aren't huffing and puffing, doesn't mean our bodies aren't working really hard.

Monday 5 September

Monday 5 September was a different day. Lots of teachers went to a union meeting, to share their opinions on government education policy. It is very important that teachers have a chance to voice their opinions on important changes to education in New Zealand.

Mr Lyons and Room 6 only had six children stay for the whole day!

Here is a photo of us in our very quiet afternoon classroom.

Happy Green Week from Room 6!

We had a great time working with our Room 22 buddy class and Mrs O'Shea making paper mache globes last week!

We made Pizza!

Puriri Award Winners - Brandon and Mozart

Please read the post below for information about our amazing Puriri Production!

Two Room 6 boys who played a confident and energetic role in the play were Mozart and Brandon. These boys were dancers, who had to do BOTH dancing and changing props on stage at the same time.

You were a very important part of the show, well done boys!

Puriri Play - ABANDONED!

A super congratulations to all of our Puriri children who took part in our term three production, called "Abandoned".

The play was written by Year 3/4 students, including ALYZAE and AVA from Room 6. All children chose a role to help prepare for the play, these included:

- dancers
- actors
- filming crew
- promotions team
- art and props team
- costume team
- directors

The play was awesome because every child chose their own role, and worked together with teammates to contribute to a successful two performances on Wednesday 7th.
