Bird Art

We studied birds and after our Natureland trip we made these!

Rooms 4,5 & 6 trip to Natureland Zoo

Sometime last Term Rooms 4, 5 and 6 went to wait for it wait for it Natureland Zoo (yay). We had to study animals and draw our fave bird and mammal. Anyways we all had fun. We all loved the little birds in the bird cage. They are so cute and the peacocks were funny. I remember my friend Rachael was sitting near the owls and there was a pukeko on the roof and she said it grabbed her pencil and pecked on it. She had to jump and try to scare the pukeko away and she got her pencil back...eventually. OK that was one funny thing. OH!! Wait I just remembered that i was talking to my friends Sophie,Joy,Trinity and Rebekah. We were by the goat pen and I was leaning on the wood. Suddenly Sophie laughed with her hand over her mouth. Then Joy,Trinity and Rebekah laughed. I said ''what?'' They said ''turn around.'' I turned around and I felt my hair being pulled. I screamed ''AHHHHHHHHHH!!'' The goat was eating my hair! I laughed and said ''dumb goat.'' Oh well I bet you had a laugh at the two stories - anyway bye. ^.^

Tree planting

We were so excited we were going to do tree planting! Everyone got gumboots or old shoes. At tree planting we found dead hedgehogs. After tree planting the whole school planted about 500 trees. We all got an award from the council. Hurray for tree planting!

Rugby World Cup

Last term we had a day for parents to come and watch us play a game of Rippa Rugby. We dressed up as The All Blacks and England. Our teams had players from Room 6, 5 and 4. The all blacks had to dress up in black and the England team had to dress up white. All the younger kids had different country's flags for supporting other countries in the RUGBY WORLD CUP 2011. The parents were yelling out loud saying "GO ALL BLACKS GO ENGLAND!!" England started with the ball and did a wonderful pass to one of their team mates. The All Blacks were ready to rip one of the rippers of England. IVA came up and ripped one of the rippers and held it up and said RIP! "One rip, 5 metres back on the field All Blacks!" said the referee. 5 metres back went the All Blacks as fast as they could so they could rip another rip and have the ball once and for all!! The whistle blew and it was half time. The referee called out "half time get to your coaches and have a break." It was time to get back on the field. Everyone was cheering. They were so happy cause they were cheering. Two people said "Go South Africa!" and one of the parents said "sorry but South Africa didn't make it to the Finals here in Nelson!"
