I went on the monkey bars.

I went on two times. 

I want to go on the slide.

Room 13 loves to move

This week we have had a lot of fun moving our bodies!  

On Monday we had Kiwisport.
This term we have been learning gymnastics.
We learnt how to land safely.. like a motorbike rider.

"I like to bounce and balance" said McKenna.  

Yesterday we got to stretch our muscles on the playground.
We all took turns on the slide.
We climbed on the ladders.
We swung on the Monkey bars.

Serena was having fun!

Fun Day Friday - Eating Lava rocks

Today we made Hokey Pokey!
It looked like lava when it was hot and poured out and when it was cold it was hard like a rock.
It was yummy and it crunched when we ate it.

Congratulations

Well Done to this week's Team 1 certificate winners, especially Marcus and Peyton from Rm 13.
They have both made a fabulous start to school.
Ka pai te mahi!

Room 13 loves the earth.

This term our inquiry topic was the earth.  We have really enjoyed learning all about our planet.

We hope you enjoy it.
