Yesterday the whole school did the SPEECH FINALS! It took a while but it was interesting to watch the speeches and I love all the topics they wrote about like monkeys, How the English language is stupid and even how a toilet can save your life. for 1st place year 6 was Mia Growdon 1st place for year 5 was Miranda Flexman. 1st place for year 4 was George Hamrahan.
Last week we did assembly. It was very fun and cool. We learnt about stereotypes and how not to judge people and not to make assumptions on people that are different cultures or different genders. We did a play about stereotypes and how not to judge people about their gender of culture. We also did a song (a song about me).
On Wednesday we went to a marae. It was very fun and exciting. All the year five and sixes Boys and some year fours had to do the haka before we left. We also did a song and did some Maori counting up to Seven and making some beats.And had some delicious milos and food and lots of fruit. After that we played outside then came back in.
A few days ago Room 5 and Room 3 did a R.E lesson together. We made a paper Mary statue and did a poster with one of marys sayings on it and decorate it. After that we left some posters in room 3 and brang some to room 5 to hang up! We made them because It was saint Mary mickillops feast day!
A while ago Room 5 did a poster about different Oceans such as the Indian ocean . I chose the Indian ocean because it has lots of amazing sea creatures and has lots of beautiful reefs. We also put different facts on the poster like name five animals that live around there.
On Mondays at school we do Pūmanuwa which means we split up into different classrooms and do different activities like Kitchen Science, Technology, Yoga and Cartooning. I chose Cartooning. I chose cartooning because I like drawing especially when I get to draw anything I want! Pumanūwa is very fun and I can't wait for next year. : )
This is something I drew. It is a monkey mixed with an eagle I called it mongle.
