S is for smarter - one hundred days smarter!

We had lots of fun on the 100th Day of School.

I loved all the collections of 100 things the children brought in - well done Room 6.  Here are a few -

We did lots of counting and maths work in the morning and then shared our 100 cake with our Room 14 buddies.  It was the last time we will be together with them - this term we have a new buddy class.


We were all mixed up for the rest of the day doing a variety of activities -

making hats with 100 "things" on them...

making centipedes with 100 legs...

creating pizza's with 100 toppings...
solving crazy problems that involved 100...

art relating to 100 with puff paint...

pictures of what we will look like when we are 100 years old ...

Mrs Serci worked with her groups on a tree with 100 leaves that will be covered will 100 flowers...


What an awesome day filled with Maths!

M is for Matariki

We have had a great week sharing and learning about Matariki this week.  Matariki is the Maori New Year.  We shared a great book and the children did some lovely writing.

We have had lots of nice activities around Matariki

We made fish kites.

We made fairy bread in the shape of stars so we could share kai.


We did star art.


We made tiki necklaces.


We were creative with sparkly playdough.


We did weaving.


We enjoyed seeing pictures and learning about how Deandra's family celebrate the the Sri Lankan New Year.
