Paihia School's Pet Day

On Friday we had our annual School Pet Day

In Te Awa we decorated Gingerbread men (after reading lots of versions of the story. We also made Vaseline saucers and sand saucers. We had to really concentrate to create repeating patterns using different colours of flower petals.

I made a Gingerbread Man and a sand saucer. It looked cool. It was so cool to me. I liked my Gingerbread Man. I think that it was cool.

Today we read the story "The Gingerbread Man". Then we measured, mixed, cooked and decorated our own Gingerbread men. They were delicious!

Action World Trip

Action World Trip

On Friday Te Awa went to Action World. Thank you very Much to our parents who provided transport. It was the first time we had been there as a class. I was VERY impressed with the level of our student's confidence at trying new a difficult activities. Here are some photos and our writing.

It was fun at Action World. I had fun on the water slide. And I went on the balls and the swing and the cars.
