Scooter Safety!

On Friday the 27th November, we were lucky enough to have Constable Jude come and teach us about road safety tips on our scooters. We learnt about how to travel around safety on the footpaths and watch for hazards.

Number Bond Chains

On Monday we learnt about number bonds to 20. We made paper chains to show these number bonds. We used 2 different colours to show the different combination of numbers. We will then use these chains to look for patterns. 




A Sample Of Room 4s Creative Writing

Once upon a time there lived a princess in a
castle. There was also a mean dragon. The 
prince came and saved her from the castle 
because the mean dragon locked her up there.
Sophie Gray

Once upon a time, there was a dragon that 
cursed a princess to go and live in a spooky 
tower. The dragon was very vicious. He really 
liked sparkly things. When the dragon saw 
sparkly things he would be vicious. Then one 
night a prince saw the castle and saw the 
princess inside. The prince was very handsome. 
Then the dragon saw the prince. They then had 
a battle and the prince won. He rescued the 
princess from the spooky scary tower that was 
built by the dragon. The prince married the 
princess.

Once upon a time there was a kingdom. The
Kingdom had a beautiful castle. There was a 
prince and a princess and one ferocious dragon. 
The dragon was mad because the prince and his 
army had almost killed the whole dragon race. 
There was one hope. There was a dragon 
wizard. The dragon wizard was very magical. So 
the war began. The dragon had cursed fire so 
they could fight. But the kingdom still won.
Otis Irvine

Once there was a beautiful princess. She
wanted to marry the prince. At their wedding 
a terrifying dragon broke in and stole her. She
screamed as loud as she could. The prince 
decided to go rescue her. When the prince 
finally got to the top of the huge mountain,
there was a dark cave. It was the dragon’s 
house.

Once there was a little princess. She was
prancing around the woods. Then a scary 
dragon jumped out in front of her. He took her 
up to a steep cliff. The dragon wanted to marry 
the princess. Then one day he changed his 
mind. The dragon wanted to eat the princess! 
The other dragons wanted to eat her too. She 
shouted “help, help”. Then a handsome prince 
came to rescue her, but the dragon had already 
eaten her up. So the prince had no one to 
marry.
Rosa Lewthwaite

The Dragon wanted to marry the pretty 
princess. The princess liked the dragon, no
wait the princess loved him. Then the next 
morning she was out in the woods. She saw the 
dragons cave. She heard a plunk-plunk-plunk. 
Then she went in the cave and there was the 
dragon playing a guitar.
Vincent Power

The dragon trapped the princess. The Vicious 
dragon then found a poison. He drank it all up.
He then turned into a handsome prince. So the 
princess and the prince got married. 
Skylar Canovas

A mean scary dragon took the princess and 
then they were at his cave. He put the princess 
in a pot. He was just about to put the oven on 
but when he looked in the pan she was gone. 
The prince saved her. The princess and the
prince got married and they lived happily ever 
after. Oh I forgot about the dragon. He was 
so sad and so hungry and he had to drink mud 
and eat bugs. He cried and cried for the rest 
of his life.

Wednesday 1st July - Marae Trip

Today we were very privileged to visit the Uni Tech Marae. It was a busy day,  filled with fun and excitement. 

We went on a bus to the Marae and then we were part of a Powhiri which Matua Edwards has been teaching us about. 

When we returned to school we had a special kai time as a class followed by games and activities.

Poi Making



Last week in Room 4, Room 7 came to help us make poi. We needed to use plastic bags, wool, and stuffing. Our assembly is on Friday and we are going to sing the song Rere Atu using the poi for the actions.
