On the Move

We have moved!!! B1 has shifted across to the newly finished B block into a lovely big room.  Our old room looked very empty after we moved out.  There was lots of stuff to take across but thanks to our lovely support staff and ex students it didn't take very long.  During the holidays everything will be organised so that we will be ready to start on the first day back.  Happy holidays everyone!

Hedgehog Fun

Fruit Kebabs

This week we were reading a  book called Hedgehog Fun.  The "Hedgehog" was really fruit and marshmallow kebabs stuck into an orange.  The book told us how to make them so we had to follow instructions.  It was important to follow the sequence so that our kebabs looked the same as the ones in the book.  Of course the best part was eating them!

The Safe Place

The Eggs

We read a story called The Safe Place.  It was about a little hen who searched for a safe place to lay her eggs.  One Friday everyone was given an egg to care for.  It was hard work!!!  Some of the eggs got broken so we had to think carefully about how to hold the eggs and where to put  them.  We made nests and found special places to keep our eggs safe.  We had lots of fun looking after our eggs.

Jack and the Beanstalk

Jack and the Beanstalk is one of our favourite fairy tales.  We decided to make some masks and to create our own Jack and the Beanstalk play.  Paultana was Jack and he had to pretend to steal the gold and chop down the beanstalk.
