Week Five Term Four

It was great to have Mr Pirie teaching on Friday of week four and Monday of week five.
On Tuesday we had Mr Esler come into our class and talk to us about Mini Beasts.  He had some bugs he had collected to show us, some photos of mini beasts and he also dressed Liana up as an insect!





We have been swimming twice a week now and we are lucky to have Mrs Pollard share her skills and swimming knowledge with us also.  It is also great to have parent help so all the children can be in the pool at once.




Our MVP this week for showing our school value of Self Control is Olivia.
We also had some more children pass their learning goals and Amber got the Tidy Kiwi Award this week.

Week Five Term Four

Wow! What a busy week it was this week.
Pet Day was on Tuesday and it was a great day with everyone coming to see all the animals, fruit and veg, baking, models and inventions.  All Team Tui did a fotobabble on their individual blogs about pet day, so make sure you go onto your child's blog and have a look.
Here are a few photos from Pet Day.





Mini Olympics afternoon was held on Wednesday to fundraise money to help support a former Edendale pupil - Mathew Caldwell who is representing New Zealand and the Special Olympics held in Australia and the end of the month.  It was a great afternoon of games.

Week Three Term Four

This week we started swimming!!!  We will be swimming on Mondays after lunch and on Thursdays after morning tea from week five on wards.  You will read about swimming on your child's individual blogs during week four.
During reading we have been creating paper mache insects and these will be finished by the end of week five.  Keep a look out for some photos of these.
On Friday at Celebration Time we had two students from Team Tui win the Tidy Kiwi Awards for the week.  Congratulations Emma P and Hannah.
