Athletics - Week 9

 We were so lucky to have fantastic weather for our school athletics. Congratulations to all children who participated in the different events. I am so proud of the effort you all put in.

It was fantastic to see the whole school out and having fun!

Rocky Shore Visit - Week 8

 What a fabulous learning experience the children got to have today. We are so lucky we have such amazing places so close to home.

The children had so much fun exploring the rocky shore. 

  

We found so many sea creatures hiding within the rocks, we experienced the coldness of the water, the feeling of the waves coming and going, sand in between our toes and so much more.

It was so good to see the whole school having a wonderful time together and helping one another. We cannot wait for the next outdoor learning experience.

Visual Mihi - Week 7

 Room 4 children and Miss McGeady are so proud of the effort that went into our visual mihi boards. They look absolutely amazing. This was a very long process but the time definitely paid off. They look fantastic on our wall.

We would love for you to come in and take a look.

 

Physical Education - Week 6

 We are so pleased the sun is shining so we can enjoy practicing moving at different speeds. During physical education today we learnt how we can change our moving speed from walking to sprinting in a safe manner. Our aim is to move around an area, increasing and decreasing speed in response to the instructions Miss McGeady gives us. Some of us found it difficult to change speed and listen to instructions. It was even harder when a bean bag was added that we had to throw to a partner while moving and changing speed or direction. So many different aspects to think about all at once!

We thought carefully about the following questions:

• When might you have to accelerate in a game?

• When might you have to slow down in a game?

• Why is it important to maintain stability when we are changing speed?
  

  

  
  
  
  

Duffy Show - Week 5

 Today we had Duffy come a preform a show for us. It was all about the struggles of online learning and level 4 lockdown. I love how the show related so well to the world we are currently living in. It was great to see all the struggles that we have during lockdown and how they can turn into positive outcomes! Duffy certainly made the most of his level 4 lockdown and gave us some handy tips for if we have to go into level 4 again.

Ollie came and enjoyed the show with us, he really enjoyed it but found it a little loud!
