Room 20 Cricket Stars.

Congratulations Tanner and Eden on making it into the Girl's Cricket B team.  We think it is really neat for Year 4 children

to be able to try out for teams and activities this year.  Well done girls.
The cricket A and B teams played each other on Friday and we went out to support the girls when they were batting.  Top effort Girls! We all loved that you were both smiling and having fun for the whole game.

Our Swimming Goals

This week Room 20 is off to Aquagym.  We decided to set ourselves a goal to work on over the week.  We will reflect on these goals after the week of swimming.  Emma was away today when we wrote our goals - we will include her one on Monday.

Happy Birthday Eve!

A huge Happy Birthday to Eve.  We enjoyed sharing your special day with you and we know you would have had heaps of fun with your friends at your party.

Charlotte Todd's Butterfly

This week Charlotte bought in her chrysalis as it was very black and ready to hatch.  She has a number of chrysalis at home but has missed most of them hatching.
Just as the class were about to head to their working space and write, Charlotte noticed the butterfly was starting to hatch.  With great excitement we saw it hatching and then once the wings had dried, Charlotte and Poppy took the butterfly outside to fly free.

Thanks for letting us share this fantastic moment Charlotte! 

Happy 8th Birthday Brooke!

Happy Birthday Brooke!  We all enjoyed hearing about your birthday today and loved singing you Happy Birthday.  We are pleased you had such a happy day.

Our first day together!

Wow what a fantastic group we have in Room 20! We all thought the day flew by and we all had wonderful, positive comments to say about our first day inYear 4 at relection time at the end of the day.

We began the day with a whole school powhiri.  After morning tea we sorted out where we wanted to sit and work for the first couple of weeks, we labelled our books and played a cool scavenger hunt.  This was fun as we had to talk to all different friends in the class to find out answers.

        

After lunch we met our Buddy Class - this year we have Room 5 and we are the Big Buddies - Yipee!!!
The whole school is making a community circle mosaic.  Each child got a quarter of a circle and we could colour our circle in any way we wanted.  Most of us included our name on our quarter.  All of the pieces will be put together to make one big community mosiac that represents the children at our school.

And here we all are......
