These are the Manawatu Turbos who came and visited MSS today! They spoke about all the hard work they have to put in to play rugby. There is a lot of training and sometimes they get injured which means they can't play for a little while. Thanks for answering all our questions! 

Here are the autographs some Room B boys got ...

Lovely Learners!

Congratulations to these fantastic people who got certificates in Junior Assembly today! Well done on all your hard work. 

Little Lamb in Room B

Brooke and Crystal bought in a brand new little lamb to visit Room B. It was born on their farm the night before. 
We all thought it was very cute, especially when it was doing its little baa's.

Sharing Time

Look at the AMAZING sharing Room B did today. We have been practising sitting still and listening to the person sharing and asking good questions. 

Olympic Kids

Imagine if kids went to the Olympics! 

Guess the Sport ...

Look at this super star Olympics work! This Room B learner drew four different Olympic sports - can you guess what they are? 

Olympic Flames

Look at these awesome Olympic torches and flames that Room B made with Mrs Baker on Thursday. Great work!

Tidy Kiwis

Room B has been working very hard lately to keep their cloak bay tidy. This means keeping our bags zipped up, our shoes away aaaaaand our scooters tidy! What a lot to remember. We have done so well at doing all this that we won Tidy Kiwi today. Congratulations Room B :) 

Wow Workers!

These two super star Room B learners got certificates in Junior Assembly today.

Keep up the fantastic work :) 

A Gold!!

Wow! We have won our first gold medal at the Olympics.
Nathan Cowen and Joseph Sullivan were far behind in their rowing race but they pushed really hard and passed everyone and came first! Well done :)

Visit from an Olympian

Yesterday we were very lucky to have an Olympian visit us! His name is Shane Reed and he went to the Beijing Olympics in 2008 as a triathlete. We all learnt about what a triathlon is, you have to swim, bike and run! The race takes about 1 hour and 55 minutes. Mr Reed told us about how hard he had to train and all the yummy things he had to give up to be fit enough to race. Even though there was free McDonalds at the Olympic Games he couldn't eat it until after his race. He has been a World Champion three times and he came 34th at the Olympics. He told us that if we want to go to the Olympics one day we need to work hard and listen to our parents and teachers. Here are a few special things he brought to show us.  

Another Bronze for New Zealand!

Rebecca Scown and Juliette Haigh have won bronze for New Zealand in the Rowing! Congratulations girls. Room B knows all the hard work it would have taken for them to get there after our Olympian talk from Shane Reed yesterday.

Olympic Torches!

As a par of our Olympics learning some clever Room B people have made Olympic torches. They even have a flame on them! 

New Zealand's First Medal!

Yay! New Zealand has won its first medal of the London 2012 Olympic Games. We will talk about it this morning. 

Lets hope there are a lot more to come :)
