We have been so busy learning in Room 10 this week that we forgot to take any photographs. Mrs Grant has started teaching us how to use the chromebooks to support our learning. We listened to some interesting speeches, enjoyed buddy reading with Room 5, and spent some time learning a few dance moves for our display.
The blue reading group experimented taking photographs and filming with our tablet after they had discussed a School Journal article about Kiwi photographer, Adrian Heke. Adrian taught himself how to use his first camera and has since taken photographs in war zones, as well as capturing sporting action shots for some School Journal articles. There must have been a lot of photographers at the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow to capture all of that sporting action.
You have only been with us in Room 10 for a few months, Tia, but we are sad that you are leaving. We will miss your enthusiasm during all our sporting activities. How exciting for you to be returning to Australia!
The Year 5/6 under 50kg rugby team enjoyed running, passing, tackling and scoring a few tries at today's interschools rugby tournament. Mr Reid was very proud of your efforts and your positive attitude. We enjoyed hearing your stories about the games in class this afternoon. Well done!
Our fitness is improving as we practise for cross-country by running every day.
Good luck, Tom, as you move to your new school. We will miss you in Room 10. Haere ra!
