Cricket lesson

Thanks to Canterbury Cricket the children all enjoyed a cricket lesson on Tuesday. I'm sure we have some future Black Caps and White Ferns in our midst.

Kite flying

We had a beautiful day on Wednesday with perfect conditions to fly our kites at Sumner Beach. We returned to school with lots of enthusiasm to write some great stories.
This is a class story we also wrote with the children thinking of lots of adjectives and action words to make our story interesting.

It was a very sunny and warm day on Wednesday when we all excitedly lined up at school to walk to the beach to fly our kites. When we got there we were happy and pleased to see that it was windy- perfect conditions for kite flying.
We flew our bright and colourful kites really high in the sky. They swooped and dived and swirled around in the wind. We loved flying our kites because they soared through the air.

Paper planes

We have been having great fun making different types of paper planes this term and flying them to see how far they go, how high they go and how long they stay up. When we have finished making them all we will predict which ones are the fastest and highest and have a plane flying experiment/ competition.

Science lesson with Julie

We were very lucky recently to have a science lesson about air with Julie - a specialist science teacher. We did some experiments and learnt about the language of science. We predicted what would happen, then we observed what happened and then Julie explained it all to us.
