Art Expo

 Today we exhibited our amazing art works in the PES Art Expo. 

We created cubism inspired self-portraits which showed two emotions.  We had one side of our faces sad and the other happy.   We had to think about what our faces look like when we feel different emotions.  

We had to think about what colours feel happy and what colours feel sad.

We were so proud of our amazing work



The second part of our celebration of the arts was a special assembly where we sang a song together with the other team one classes. 


We were SUPERSTARS!

Cross country fun.

Friday was the PES annual Cross Country day.  Everybody at school dressed up in their house colours and came together on the field.  We lined up with all the other Year 1 tamariki to get ready to race.



Then we got called over to the start line.  Mr Burt lined us up and we then we were off!  

We ran as fast as we could until we reached the finish line.  Everyone cheered for us!  It was a great day.




Fun with F and S

This week we have been learning all about the letters S and F.  We have learnt to write them, read them and hear the sounds the make in words.  We have used what we know about the sounds of words to read.

We play fun games to help us learn about letters.  We went outside with chalk and we wrote down the letter we heard at the beginning of the word.  

First Samuel and Malakhi listened hard to the sounds and wrote some enormous letters. Ka pai te mahi.

Team 1 Fun Day

 Miss Hockly surprised us with a special Team 1 Fun day on Friday.  It was fun spending time with teachers and tamariki from other classes.  We did craft projects.  In Room 13 we made our own Tiki to wear for Te Wiki o te reo Maori.  



Then we shared kai, played games and had an iceblock treat!  What a great day!
