Week 8 - Christmas in the playground

Week 8 was super busy preparing for our performance at Christmas in the Playground!!!

Here are some of the highlights from our event on Friday

Week 7 - Foaming Fountain & Kiwi sport Basketball

On Monday we did our fortnightly science experiment! This one was super exciting. We mixed dish washing liquid, hydrogen peroxide and yeast together. When the yeast and the hydrogen peroxide mixed together they REACTED! It caused the all the liquid to flow out of the bottle. The bottle got real warm after as well, it was an exothermic reaction.  

Our Kiwisport couch came for another half hour of basketball training! We were learning to dribble and pass the ball!

Week 7 - Santa Heads!

Every Friday we are doing an exciting Christmas creation! Today we made Santa heads. We cut out our own triangle and then painted it. After we cut a circle in our paper plates and stapled it all together. Some of the students made a little beard for their Santa! See the pictures below.

Week 6 - Christmas Tree Making

Christmas is coming! Room 8 is getting ready for Christmas by making a new Christmas decoration each week! On Friday morning we made Christmas trees out of Popsicle sticks. We glued them together in the morning and after singing assembly we painted them! Next week we will decorate them and start creating a new Christmas decoration.

On Tuesday we had Athletics Day. In the morning Awa (Junior School) had their turn at long jump, high jump, throwing, sprinting and a special sponge bob activity.
