Welcome to Term Four and our new little people that started today. We are looking forward to a busy term. The summer weather is here and we are wearing our hats outside at all times to be sunsmart. We are off to a visit at the Art Gallery but have not received the dates as yet so keep checking our site for new updates.

Here is a recent photo of our wonderful class of new five year olds.

We have had a busy few days as usual. On Tuesday we were lucky enough to have expert cricketers to take us for small ball skills. We had Amie who is the New Zealand Womens Cricket Captain and Tim who is a Central Districts Cricketer. We had fun practising the skills.

Welcome Back

Welcome back to our Fitzroy Family of Room Two for our last term of the year. We were lucky to have Ashton and Kaylee start on their school journey today. We had a busy day and all of the class enjoyed sharing their holiday adventures. We are off to Puke Ariki on Thursday the 21st October at 9:15 to a session called 'Make it Work'. Watch this space for a report on our outing. We have a busy term ahead and time will fly.  Dont forget to check our Blog and hopefully we will manage to get some photos and examples of work to allow you all to celebrate and share in our successes.

Cross Country Training

We are right into our cross country training and are learning to warm up properly to prepare to run for long periods. Do you know some of us are able to do as many laps of the course as the seniors. We are looking forward to the big day on Thursday  to show how fit we are.

Fire Station Visit

We had a busy day on Thursday. In the afternoon we went on a big bus to the Firestation. The Fire Fighters showed us through the fire engines and the pole in the fire station. We all had a turn using the hose to hit a bucket off a big cone. You will be able to enjoy the pictures soon! We also watched a fire fighter go very high on the crane on top of the fire engine. They were impressed with our knowledge of fire safety. We were very tired at 3pm after our two trips in one day.

Girls High Visit

We went to Girls High last Thursday and worked in the Computer Lab. We worked on the computers and created pictures using Art Rage. We can be proud of ourselves  and the pictures we created.

Wetlands

Our trip to the wetlands was amazing. We even got to hear tuis singing. Room Two children will have to take you for a walk and show you sometime.
