What did we learn this week?
* We learnt a new jump jam song called Chihuahua - Cass. It's is cool at the end when you put your hand on somebody's shoulder and make a train singing chihuahua - Tom.

Mrs Gordon came in to helps us with the poem on Friday while Miss Kincaid took the choir and some of her class, room 22, came and helped us too - Kyle. Mrs Gordon knew quite a few of us because she has taught a lot of our siblings - Anna-Lucy.

Term 3 Week 3
This week we:
* Did 'ay' and 'ai' for handwriting and poetry. - Anna-Lucy
* Daniel was our star child for this week. We learnt that his favourite food is chicken nuggets, he has an older brother in room 16, he has a 17 year old cat called Milly, he has a bigger sister who is still in England finishing her exams and he comes from Birmingham in England. - Keenan and Team 13
* We learnt how to write the recipe for making milkshakes and we might be able to make them next week - Ryan
* We are about to head off to the village to front the junior assembly. Tom, Mary and Eliza are all speaking at this assembly. Trent, Anna-Lucy, Daniel, Cass and Annabelle are doing their mihi's. We are going to sing some Maori songs. We will celebrate people's birthdays and we are going to sing We're all in this together. - Mary and Team 13.
* We went to visit our buddy class and they helped us do our poetry sheets and they helped us choose our books from the library. Daniel, Tom and Ryan
* We went to see the wearable arts that the senior children put on for us on Tuesday. They designed and made their own costumes - there was a busy bee, a swine flu, they sang the 'Octopus' Garden' using fluorescent lights and colours which was really effective, Mr Norton dressed up as a lady, There were some visitors to NZ and one of them slipped in a cow patty and one sat on the wrong seat and the taxi driver had to shue him away and they got all confused with the language and exaggerated their accents. Team 13
Have a great weekend and week 4!
