Interzone Athletes

This morning we farewells our interzone athletes as they prepared to do their best against children from schools right across the Hutt Valley.
We are looking forward to hearing of their successes during the morning.

Straight back into it!

We have been back at school for fewer than three hours, and already we are running around learning new skills. We have training and tournaments from players at Lower Hutt Football Club this week.
Look out for news from camp over the next few days.

Learning how to find factors

Caleb created this mini-lesson to demonstrate using the strategy of doubling and halving to find factors.

Digital Story-telling aka Virtual Reality?

Welcome back to our last term of school in 2012.

This term we are going to focus on bringing our ICT skills together in the form of digital storytelling. The children have been writing about their holidays, and using google docs and google presentations, as well as the App of Puppet Pals to illustrate their writing. Check out the photos below. If you have missed out on a photo opportunity - never fear! Your child is quite happy to create their own memory. 

 Look at this dare devil! What an awesome swing.

 Is this Alice in Wonderland?

 Ooh! That lamb is so cute? How did she manage to get up so close?

 Wow! These girls had at the whole cinema to themselves!

Look at these two and their beautiful horse - and on their own piece of paradise!
