Term 4 you need to wear a hat!

It is very important to wear a hat because you will get sun burnt or get skin cancer. A few Days ago Mrs Brattle  fond some sun UV measuring beads.  We took them out side they changed colour and we took some photos of them. I was in Tora's group with Karen and Sammie and Rohan, we took lots of photos and went to lots of places but it just stayed the same colour. The colours change it when we put them to the light.

last Tuesday we took beads out to different parts of our school to see how hot it gets some parts get very hot its very important to wear a hat the sun can burn you, the hat will protect you from the sun even on clody days you can get burnt.

This just goes to show how important it is to wear your hat. All people at Plateau School need to wear a hat everyday in term 4. Being safe in the sun is a very important thing to do. Thank you to the group of children who went out to measure the Uv rays around the School, it just goes to show how powerful the sun is in New Zealand.

Stay sunsafe people and thanks for reading our blog.

Week 2 term 4

Monday, we started off after fitness with a visit in the bush. Monday is Kiwis day to play in the bush. We need to remember to wear our hat everyday this term.
Here is a picture of Kiwi Class standing at the look out up in the bush.

This term our topic is about water. We are excited to see where this topic will take us. Next week we are having a visit from some ladies from Wellington Water.



We made the most of the sunshine and cleaned out the chicken coop. Don't forget that you can buy the eggs for $3 for six or $6 for a dozen.

Have a safe and happy weekend.

Monday week 1 term 4

A warm welcome back from your holidays and I am sure we are all rested and ready for term 4.
This week we have been getting ready for our visit from our local fire fighters. We have been working through the fire wise programme. We have a new student join us in Kiwi Class. His name is Samson, we are all looking forward to showing him around Plateau School. Welcome to you Samson and your family. We are really happy to have you as part of Kiwi class.

We learnt about where our fire exits were, we have three exits in Kiwi room. As part of our golden time on Wednesday, we jumped out one of the window exits. We were all very sensible and helped each other out the window.

We were all very interested in what the firemen had to show and tell us. Mrs Brattle was very proud of how well we could answer the questions. The firemen thought we were very clever.

Get down, get low, get out!!

Practising getting low to stay away from the smoke, if there was a fire.

EARTHQUAKE DRILL!! we were very quick and safe when we had our earthquake drill.

Such a busy week back for the start of term 4.

Reduce, Reuse, recycle.
