Daffodils Trip

Last Friday we visited the daffodils at Wetherston's. It has been re-opened by a group of committed community members. When we arrived we went to the daffodil field. After that we went to the waterfall which was lovely. When we got back from the waterfall we found the old Hart homestead where the Hart family lived. Some students then walked up a track to find the wardrobe only to find it wasn't there any longer. It was a beautiful day and we really enjoyed going up to the daffodils.


Sports Activator - Touch

On Friday 15th September we had our lesson Sports Activator session with Greer. In this session we were practicing our touch skills to get us ready for the upcoming season. We learnt the technique for passing from both sides. We also did a drill that worked on our concentration skills. This was quite a fun drill where we faced our partner with the balled place on the ground between us. Then Greer would call out a part of the body and we had to touch that part of our body, if Greer called out "ball" we would dive towards the ball to try and get it before our partner. We finished of the session with several games of mini touch. We were put in teams and Greer would call out a number. That number of people had to play a mini game of touch.

Elections 2017!

Today Room 7 started their inquiry into the Elections. We were put into groups and asked to find out about one of the main political parties in NZ.

Miss Taylor created a collaborative Google Slide and in our groups we added our research to our specific slide.

It is great to be able to all add our information onto the same document.
