Personal Investigations

We have listened to some wonderful Personal Investigations this week. Topics have ranged from blackbirds, soccer, NRL, M & M's, and toothpaste. Take a look at this short video of Kayla making electricity with her washing machine generator.

Reindeer making with LC16

LC11 had a fabulous time making reindeer with our LC16 buddies. We helped them trace around their foot and their hands, and they did the colouring in. It was a lot of fun.

We can tell the time

We made our own clocks to help us learn to tell the time. We're nearly experts.

All Black Day - Term 3

Brain Making

Today we made brains out of potato flakes and salt. They look so real.

Reading

We read a book called "Sam's Glasses". It was about a girl who can't see the ball very well cause she was far away. She needs new glasses but she didn't want to get them. I made some glasses.

Skeleton Making

Mrs Kenyon gave us a test on our bodies. We had to name as many bones in our body as we could. We did really badly on the test so we've been learning more about our skeletons. We even had a go at making a skeleton. Take a look at how well we did.

Karna Neupane

We were fortunate enough to have Karna Neupane come and speak to us today about his life in his home country - Bhutan. Mr Neupane moved to NZ with his wife, parents and daughter in 2008.

A big thank you to Mrs McIvor for organising the visit for us.

We won a BBQ!

LC11 entered a colouring competition run by Fonterra to be in to win a years supply of ice cream or a BBQ. Unfortunetely, we didn't win the ice cream but we did win the BBQ. LC11 had the most entries out of the entire Manawatu area. You may have seen the BBQ at Touch Rugby on Monday night. We have decided to donate the BBQ to the PTA.

Mrs Squires - The Digestive System

A big thank you to Jo Squires (Ashleigh's Mum) for coming and teaching us about the Digestive System today. Jo is a nurse at the hospital and had a vast knowledge of this topic, among others. We all learnt so much. THANK YOU!!!!
