Games

You looked like you were having heaps of fun with Miss Lyell playing games. I really like the one where you had to keep quiet. I didn't do very well at that did I?

Rm 2 at Music

Old Mcdonald Playhouse

Today there was a show at St Marys. Some of the characters of the show were a cat, dogs, and cows. Izzy was put in charge of making sure Gyp the dog did his training for the Hokitika Sheep Dog Trials. She had to tell Gyp how many starjumps to do. We thought the show was pretty fantastic and hilarious.

Ben Browne the author visits St Marys

The whole school went to the hall and Ben Browne came to talk to us. He told us about writing books and stories. We found out that he likes to read books and to write them. His wife is an illustrator and she draws the pictures for his books. He didn't like reading until he was 9 and he read a book called Tom Sawyer.
He read us some books and Pia held the book and turned the pages to show us the pictures.

Student Led Conferences

We have been having our student led conferences. This is when we tell our parents what we are working on and where we are going next.

This is Liam having his student led conference with his Mum and Jasmine with her Dad.

Safe Walking

On Thursday Constable Jos and Constable Teri showed us how to walk safe across the road. We learnt how to walk across the pedestrian crossing properly. We went around the block of the school. When we were crossing to go around the block back to school there wasn't a pedestrian crossing. When we got back we talked about the road rules.

Tractor Trek for Cancer Kids

We walked down to the beach to see all of the tractors come past. A police car with his lights on was first and then a fire engine followed by all of the tractors.

The student of the week was Jacob and he got to sit on a tractor and they started it up. Jacob said it felt real good. After that we all sat in the tractor.

Children's Day

On Friday we dressed up in our house colours and then we paraded around the court. After that we played games. Some of the games were Sponge races, Musical Islands, an obstacle course, baton relay and a balloon race.

After lunch we went to the pool for a free swim. It was fun and some people went on the inflatable slide.
