Special Reader

Room B was very lucky to have a guest reader come in on Friday afternoon. Ian McKelvie came to read us a special book. We got to ask him a few questions about being Mayor and working with the Prime Minister. He told us that he loves to read in the car.



Book Swap

On Friday we all got to bring an old book from home, that we had read lots of times, to swap with someone elses old book. It was a great way for us to have something new to read. We were all so happy with the 'new' books we got to take home!
Thanks everyone for bringing books to swap.






We are firewise!

Fireman David and Fireman Kevin came to visit us on Wednesday. They wanted to hear all about our Firewise learning. They were both very pleased with all the learning that we had done!
We got to ppractice what we would do in a fire by getting low and crawling under the smoke, we had to shout "fire, fire, fire!" 

We all know to ...
Get down, get low and get out FAST!!

"The sky is falling!"

Cheeky Kea

Kea are large parrots that live in the South Island high country, sometimes venturing down to valley floors. Their call is a ringing ‘keee-aa’. Playful and inquisitive, they can be destructive around ski fields and campsites, vandalising or stealing unattended items. In the past kea gained an undeserved reputation as sheep killers and many were shot. Since 1986 they have been fully protected by law.
