Cross Country Fun Run

 We were supposed to run our Cross Country last term. However, with all the issues in Auckland, it was postponed until yesterday. We had been training and we ran and ran until we were tuckered out. 


As you can see we could dress up in our house colours. It was the Year 4's first year running out on the road and we hadn't had a chance to practise and they got confused and ended up running around the field, so they didn't run past Mrs Mundy.


We had doughnuts and a slushy as a treat for lunch is we had run and listened to the teachers. What a yummy reward!


Parents even received a surprise as they were a lot of seedlings that were available for them to take home. Thank you ICL.

Duffy Show Assembly - The Coggen

 We thought we were going to have to watch the show through the TV due to Covid but being in Level 1 they were able to come to us. Yippee.


The show was really cool. Duffy loved to read about a Super Hero that was part cat, chicken and part dog. On a Youtube advert, this man had created the Coggen creature from the stories, and it was for sale.


Unfortunately, the new pet needed training and the training wasn't going so well. And the pet ended up feeling unwanted and ran away.


Everyone learnt a lesson about being tolerance and empathy.

Writing an Explanation

 We are learning about Volcanoes. We looked briefly at what an explanation was last term and decided we should have another look this term as we study the earth. We have been looking at different clips and research to gather information to answer our How or Why question that starts our Explanation.
