Room 6 Week 9 Term 4 2013

Kia Ora, Malo e lelei, Bulla vinaka and many more greetings to you all.

This week we had a special visitor to Room 6. We were very excited to see him and he gave us all a lollypop.

THANK YOU SANTA!

 

We also had a fabulous Disco in the hall for all the juniors with dance competitions and prizes! Well done prize winners!

 

 

 

Merry Christmas and have a wonderful break over the holidays! We look forward to seeing you all ready for learning in 2014.

 

 

Room 6 Week 8 Term 4 2013

Kia Ora whanau! What an exciting week we have had!

This week we got to vote for our school leaders after completing an inquiry into 'How can we choose a good leader?'

We had quite a list of criteria for choosing.
This included:
- Listens to us
- Respects us
- Helps us to understand things
- Makes good choices
- Kind to us
- Good learners

First we listened to the instructions.

 

Then we got our voting papers.

 

 

Next we went to the voting booth to make our choices.

 

 

Then we put our leader votes in the School Leader Votes box and our referendum votes in the Referendum box.

 

Now we have to wait until Prize Giving to find out who the winners are!

 

 

Room 6 Week 7 Term 4 2013

Wow! Is all we can say about this week. It has been awesome!

First we interviewed two of our leaders to find out why they wanted to become a school leader and what skills they need to do a good job.

Thank you Amit and Viktoria, you helped us a lot.

Then we went to see the Hunger Games presentations done by Room 20. We learned about the three books and the fighting between the people.

 

Then we had some year 7s come and do their campaigning for becoming the next school leaders.

 

 

We put up their posters on our windows and we asked them questions about why we should vote for them. There are lots of very good people who want to be our school leaders. It is a tough decision.

 

And last but not least, we had our Kai Hauora Day picnic on Friday. We made our Monster Muncher sandwiches to share and played games with Room 15.

 

 

After that we got to watch the amazing Tongan Group perform their fabulous dances! It was sooooo awesome!

Kia Ora Whanau!

What a great week it has been for us!

We continue to have terrific swimming lessons with Riccardo in the mobile pool.

 

We had a lovely day celebrating the festival of Diwali. Lots of the teachers got dressed in traditional costumes and some of the seniors did a beautiful dance performance for us.

 

 

We also continued with our study of How can I be a better me? and found out about healthy food for lunch.

Then we created a fabulous Monster Muncher Sandwich!

 

 

Have a great weekend everyone!

 

 

Room 6 Week 3 Term 4 2013

Kia ora Whanau! What a great week it has been in Room 6!

We have started our swimming lessons with Riccardo who has coached many great swimmers and is now passing on his knowledge to us in Room 6.

We began by sculling around the pool and gaining confidence in the water.

 

 

He is also teaching us about water safety. Thank you Riccardo!

 

We also had a special treat in our assembly this week. The J Geeks who have performed on New Zealand's Got Talent and overseas, came to do a special performance for us.

 

We loved it!!!!!!!!
