Electricity!

We have been learning about electrical circuits during Science time. We now know that electricity travels in a circle, which is called a circuit. A battery or a switch or a break in the circuit, can cause our power to stop going around and our bulb does not work. It...

Money, money, money!

It has been fantastic to come back to school! We have been having a lot of fun together and have particularly enjoyed learning about earning money, spending it, and giving change. We found out all about money and then practiced spending it and giving...

Home learning 2020

Story Time with Bodhi

Bodhi decided to be a Year 2 teacher for the morning! He chose a book and then took it home to learn. Then he brought it back to school the next morning and read it to the class! Bodhi did a fantastic job and everyone loved hearing him read.

The Final Frontier!

Wow, what a performance! All the hard work paid off when we performed our sold out, once-in-a-lifetime show in front of the Gulf Harbour Preschool, the Wentworth Primary and College students, and our parents and whanau. We could not stop talking about it the day after...

Pumpkin Soup Day!

We recently read a book about growing pumpkins and making pumpkin soup and decided to make our own! It was a great success and EVERYONE liked it!* What a great way to get some veggies into us and keep warm on a cold day. We even saved some seeds to grow in the school...

Measurement!

Leo’s recent trip to Taupo got us all talking about the “Hole in One” golf challenge there. Mr Clark says its about 110 metres. How far is 110 metres? Is it as long as our whiteboard? Is it as long as our classroom? We decided to find out how far 110...
