More photos of our creations



Support for Wainoni School


Our principal Mrs Bruce has been communicating with the principal of Wainoni school. We were emailed some photos of the earthquake damage at Wainoni school and around the area. We were devastated when we saw these images, imagine if that were our school and our classrooms! We all decided to make some cheerful messages of support for some of the children at Wainoni school in Aranui, Christchurch.
Check out the photos!

Outdoor Education

Day One: Bigfoot came to school and the year 5's did tent erecting, team building, problem solving (not maths!), mountain biking and archery. A couple of our favourites where mountain biking (because we went over ramps), archery (because we were trying to pop the balloons) and tent erecting (because we sang campfire songs after our tent was put up!). Day Two: We went to the Cascades bushwalk. We saw some native bats and huge kauri. One of the kauri trees had Phytophora and one was dead :-( Day Three: We went to Extreme Edge and we had fun on a lot of the walls. Later that day we went to the pools and had lots of fun splashing in the pools and throwing balls. By Thunder5000, Sport3000, Strawberrygirl and Sprinkle (Panthers Reading Group)
