Term 2 Week 6

Week 6 was another short week with the Monday being a public holiday

This weeks word of the week was 'like'. During one of our writing sessions, the students drew and then wrote the names of foods they like to eat. This linked in nicely with what we have been leaning on the Life Education truck.
During investigation times this week students have been learning literacy, numeracy and te reo through our natural resource equipment.
This week we started our first of four football sessions run by Kelly Sports. During this weeks session we looked at fundamental movement skills, how to dribble a ball and how to pass a ball. These were all taught through fun interactive games. 
This week we had our last visit to the Life Education truck. We learnt about how our body digests food today and the importance of healthy eating.
On Friday we continued with our PMP programme.

On Thursday we were very fortunate to go on a trip to the Capital E Arts Festival.  All of the children we so well be...
