An exciting week this week. We had Rimu Athletics on Thursday, we were lucky the rain stayed away. It started with a rotation through all the different events and then we had the semi-final and final 50m races. Congratulations to everyone! In Room 14 Isla came first for the 6 year old girls and Muhammad was 1st for 7 year old boys and Toby was 3rd. Awesome work.
We thoroughly enjoyed our music concert. Even though we were a little nervous to perform in front of our parents, we were super excited. The Rimu Nui team and Ms Landall did a fabulous job.
For a delayed Diwali treat we made some Barfi during Discovery Time. Thank you very much Mrs Bhatia for organising and supervising this.
Finally a big congratulation to Dezire for moving levels for Phonics!
We are very excited about our Music Concert next week. We look forward to seeing you there!
Congratulations to Sione and Kristina who both got certificates and moved levels with their Phonics this week.
We also have been lucky practising some cricket skills with Auckland Cricket this week.
This week is Niuean Language week. We have been greeting each other in the morning with Fakaalofa lahi atu. We also learnt about Uga (Coconut crabs) today!
After reading the book Kepapa Huarākau (Fruit Kebabs) during Te Wiki o te Reo Maori we decided to make some in our last week of term. We invited Room 23 our buddy class to join us. We had so much fun making and then eating them!!
What a fun week! We had a visit from some police dogs and learnt heaps of interesting things. Police Dogs are German Shepards. They can run 65km per hour! They have a great sense of smell and their main role is to track. They are trained until they are 2 years old and then continue working until they are about 8 years old.
