The Amazing Trip to Waitakere Ranges

We went to Waitakere Ranges by bus and when we got there we had some morning tea. Then we went off to go to our first activity . One of the groups went to do the bush walk and the other went somewhere else . We went with Room 23 ,we split up and set off to do our activtiy, the bush walk. We saw lots of native trees like the Tea tree and Kauri and the Silver Fern and Brown Fern. There were lots more and we saw a Tui and Wood Pigeon . We met our guide and their names were Simon and Olly and some others. After that we had some lunch. Then we went to our next activity and it was when you used the poter and we patnered up. There was a person who got the soil and wacked the wood on the tray and then there was a person who would suck the pipe and the bug would go in to a container and it could not come back up. Then we went back on the bus and drove back to school and went in to the class and sat on the mat then the bell rang and we went home .

Cross Country

We have just finished our school cross country competition on a beautifully sunny and warm autumn day. Room 20 kids did fantastically well with many getting into the Zones.

Well done guys. I am really proud of you.

Some Camp Adair Photos
















Back from Camp Adair

What a fantastic few days! The children were so well behaved which made camp much easier. They tell me that they had a really great time. I think their favourite part was putting salt in my Milo.

I personally had a brilliant time. I also want to say a huge thank you to all the parents who came and helped. We could not have done it without you. We all hope that you enjoyed it.

Before Camp

I am feeling quite scared as I have never been to camp before. I am excited because I will have the chance to try to overcome my fear of heights, but I am not sure if I'll be able to get to sleep at night. Most people don't want it to rain but some do and then we will get really muddy. I am happy that I will get the experience of camp.

I am feeling really excited about camp which starts on Monday 30 March. I will get do jump off great heights and slide down a mudslide. I will also get to do an obstacle course, if the weather will be fine. I also get to share a cabin with my friends.
