Waikato Gym Fun

Spot the terrific gymnasts in Room3 that represented our school with the older students at the Waikato Gymnastics  Festival. Well done ladies. A special congratulations to Taylah who came 6th overall for Waikato. Rock On, Room 3!!

AG Day

Room 3 students were keen contributors and competitors to the Ag Day challenges of training and nurturing a calf or lamb. These pictures capture some of the line up of winners in the calf section. Well done everyone.

It's X- Country time again!!!!!!

After weeks of training it was time for us to test ourselves against the hill and paddock. The runners were fired up and as keen as mustard. Everyone rallied around , even the weather as it hadn't been too promising but Mrs Clark worked her magic once again. The sausage sizzle lent us a hand with the promise of food wafting in the air we did our best to be home first to try them.

Making Scarves

As part of our inquiry into "Linking Hands, Linking Lives" we have been making scarves to send to children in orphanages in Romania. We needed to learn lots of new skills to achieve this including learning to put  our ability with measuring to use,pattern making, designing and using overlockers.
We borrowed children from Room1 and Room 5 to ensure a good fit for everyone. NZ Post shop in Putaruru has offered to help us send our items to America where a christian agency will take them to Romania in time for Christmas. Thank you all for helping us to help others.
