Windsocks

This term we have been learning about the Holy Spirit.  We learnt that the Holy Spirit is like the wind. You can't see wind but you can feel it and you can see the effects that it has on different things eg the leaves blowing.  We made windsocks for the science display.

 Look at our colourful windsocks

Fantastic Friday

Over the last few weeks we have been doing portraits.  Each week the children created different types of portraits - self portraits, career portraits and portraits using paper cutting.  Children from different classes in the Junior Team got to choose what they wanted to do/learn about.  Look at our cool portraits!

A Visit from the Pukekohe Fire Service

In Room 9 we have been learning about keeping safe when there is a fire.  We learnt that we need to Get Down ! Get Low! Get Out!  We were also lucky enough to have a visit from the Pukekohe Fire Service.  We had fun looking at all their equipment and we even got to sit inside the Fire Engine.

Writing in Room 9
Today we did our writing on white boards. We are learning to listen to the initial sound when we are writing a word.  We made our own sentences using the words WENT and LIKE.

Mufti Day
Room 9 had fun dressing up for Mufti Day.  We raised money for Bellyful.

Fantastic Friday
Over the past few weeks we have been doing Fantastic Friday in the Junior Team.  Children from different classes chose the topic that they wanted to learn about.  In Room 9 the children learnt about plants.  We grew plants, we went on a plant hunt, we made a poster and read different stories about plants.  We also learnt about the parts of a plant and we also did some writing about what we observed when our plants were growing.

Palm Sunday Liturgy
In Room 9 we made our own palm leaves for Palm Sunday.  We dressed up and acted out the Palm Sunday story.  The children waved their palms and we sang Hosana.
