Music Extravanganza

Today Room 1 enjoyed performing for the whole school and a large number of parents and families. The children in Room 1, like all the children in the school, love going to lessons each week with Mrs Bowen. I think Room 1 did a wonderful job performing today, what do you think?

Treat from the teachers

To finish off our awesome inquiry unit for the teachers Room 1 were treated to an early morning tea in the staff room and some chocolate treats from Mrs Stanley!

Visit to the Cathedral

As part of our Church Strand we needed a visit to the Cathedral to better understand what is in the Church. Monsignor John showed us around and we learnt so much about where things go and the name of things. 

Harold!

How exciting to have Harold visiting St Joes to teach Room 1 all about eating healthy and what foods to put into our bodies all the time and what foods we should only eat sometimes.

Week 9 Certificates

Congratulations to J.T. and Meryn on receiving certificates this week. 

Polyfest

Room 1 had two star performers in Polyfest - Eliana and Poppy, these two were amazing for getting up on stage and performing in our Pasifika group. They also got treated to a special breakfast the week after Polyfest with the whole group.

Disco Fun

Wow! What a night! The students who attended did not stop dancing and made Miss Reeves stay on the dance floor half the night also. What a fantastic evening!

Morning Tea - Take 1!

The teachers loved our first morning tea and have given some great feedback to make the next one next week!

Week 8 Certificates

Well done boys, keep up the amazing work!

Hanna CARE Award

Congratulations on getting your Bronze CARE Award, a great achievement in Room 1!

Technology - Morning Tea for the teachers

This term we have been doing two things in technology - coding and learning the technology process. To learn the technology process we have had to figure out a solution to the problem of the teachers having boring and unhealthy morning teas. We have had to
- brainstorm what we could do
- brainstorm potential problems
- survey the teachers to find out what they do and do not like
- search the supermarket catalogues to see what we can buy
- write Mrs Stanley a letter asking her to help us pay for the morning tea.

Here are some photos of us choosing food from the teachers responses. Look out for the final product coming in a few days!

Firewise

Firewise is an important skill we need to learn from a young age. In week 6 Miss Reeves taught us the basics and on Monday the Firefighters came to teach us more. We learnt:
- who to call in a fire
- how to tell someone their is a fire
- how to get out in a fire

We also got a certificate and magazine to take home!

Week 7 Certificates

Congratulations to Amelie and Eloise on all your hard work in the past few weeks, keep it up!!
