Creepy Crawly Hunt

Today we went on an exciting hunt around the school, looking for creepy crawlies. We used magnifying glasses to look more closely at the bugs we found.

Room 23's Gardens

Yesterday we planted our two tyre gardens. In one, we have planted sunflowers and in the other, carrots and wild flowers. We are looking forward to seeing them start to grow before the end of the school year.

Preparing our gardens for planting

Last week, we visited the school gardens and prepared two tractor tyre gardens for planting. We had to weed the gardens and turn the soil over ready for planting.

Sport Manawatu

On Wednesday 19th, Darrin came from Sport Manawatu to take us for a PE lesson. It was great fun.

Beans!!

We planted bean plants and last week some of our bean plants sprouted. We are recording our observations in our bean plant diaries each week. 

What are shapes used for?

We went for a walk around the school to look at how shapes are used in our environment. We found many uses for shapes and are going to make a book about our findings.

Exploring the school gardens

Last week, we explored the school gardens and found some tractor tyres for us to use to do some planting. We will have to do some weeding, first!
