Room 5 News

Not many Year 2 children get to write their own newspaper. During the last week of Term one each of the children had an assignment to do to contribute to the paper. Some were reporters, others went out to interview people with interesting stories and we even had our own photographers. It was an amazing effort and everyone is really proud of the result.

Discovery

Last Friday Poppy took some photos of children doing all kinds of stuff during Discovery. Everyone likes Discovery because there is heaps of fun things to do and you get to make up games with your friends. There are five Junior classes doing Discovery and you can play with some different children.

Science Experiments

We got a bonus science lesson with Julie this afternoon. Julie talked to us about how important it was to observe carefully. Can you tell what experiments we did by looking at the pictures.

The Tuis reading group have enjoyed reading the new plays in the Readers Theatre reading books. They used great expression and very clear voices. We enjoyed listening to them.
