Both Denver and Maya have worked hard this week, always trying their best. They listen to instructions and follow them.
Thank you, Denver and Maya, it's great to have you in Room 3.
The Tui Reading Group presented the play: The Sky is Falling.
Alessandro played Cock Lock, Danny was Duck Luck, Maya was the Reader, Denver was Hen Len, Freya was Chick Lick, and Trinity was Fox Lox.
They presented the play very well to Room 3 as well as to Room 2 and Room 1. Well done Tui Group!

This was the first time this group had presented a play to the class. They all did a super job. Well done Kiwi Group!
Benjamin was presented with a certificate from his Reading Recovery Teacher. Congratulations, Benjamin.
The portacoms look good from the outside. We are looking forward to being in them next year. It is amazing what can be done these days!
Our Reflections on 2011
I was having fun in the playground playing soccer and playing with my friends. I made good friends. When it was snowing I liked playing in the snow. Luke and Wil moved into another classroom. I like it because we are Year 1s. By Alessandro
This year I made a new friend because Annabel moved to another classroom. My new friend is Isla. We played all year together. We are BFFE that means we are best friends forever. I am serious that we are what I just said. By Macy
This year I had to move into two classrooms, Room 2 and Room 3. It was very tiring for me and for the other kids. Now we are all in the same class which is Room 3. We had to move, well, because we had to move. We were very busy in both classrooms. Now Mrs Kearns is in Room 2. We did a lot of work in Rooms 2 and 3 and of course it was triple star work. We had lots and lots and lots of fun there. By Rose
This year Room 3 had to move to Room 2 then in 20 weeks time we moved to Room 3 again. It was tiring. Then in three weeks’ time the builders came to make some classrooms. The children were more excited. By Freya
This year I liked playing on the playground. I used to play with Denver. We played lots of games. I like Denver because she is a good friend. We have been writing a lot. We have even been doing Fast Words. Sometimes Mrs Mahon comes in. By Erin
This year I made my new friend, Maya. We were friends for the whole year. We had some arguments but we were happy in the end and we are still best friends now. Can you believe it? We were friends from January to December. I hope we will be in the same class next year because I still want to be friends. By Amelia
This year it’s cool and shaky when everyone’s things changed, well sort of. I’m happy the year is almost over. By Lily
This year they have been doing building at school. I made a new friend called Macy and other friends called Molly and Denver. By Isla
