This morning we had a visit from Mrs Chatfeild, she showed us a fun way to get into partners. Stand up, hands up, pair up, using this way we could get to know each other better. We had to get a sheet and find information about 16 people in our class. At the end Mrs Chatfield was very impressed with us and Mrs Brattle was too. Mrs Brattle put 5 marbles in the marble jar.

We have been learning about Diwali as part of our celebration topic. We found a great website and did some reading about Diwali. We also found some crafts to make. Today we made firecrackers. We decorated them and we are going to put them on the wall. We are VERY proud of them, come and have a look.

Inline hockey.

First thing this morning we had some exciting visitors come. They were the team from hockey on wheels. We got to put on all the safety gear and a pair of roller blades. Then we had some skill lessons, and a little game.

We were very proud of ourselves and got pretty hot and sweaty. We had such a great time.

Then we went off to have our morning tea. After morning tea we went straight to the library for a visit with an author. His name was Kevin Boon and he has written a lot of books. He read us some stories and gave us some tips for our own writing.

We went back to our class to do some of our own writing and create some extra special writing using our new tips.

We were so interested and excited to share our ideas that we produced some really great writing.

Well done to Tessa, Renee and Malia who received their silver merit awards today, that's a whopping 75 merit point. Well done girls.
