H is for Harold

This week we have had Harold and Kapa from the Life Education Trust visit us at Redwood School.



In Room 6 we have been learning about Food for Energy and why we need a balanced diet.  We helped Harold create a healthy menu for his friend Jocko's birthday party.


There are some fun things on the Life Education Trust's web page for kids

D is for Donating

It was with pleasure that some of the children in Room 6 represented the Kiwi and Tui syndicates to donate the 100 cans collected on 100 days of school to the local Salvation Army food bank.

Thanks everyone for your support.
