Throwing Some Fun into Room 13

Logan taught us how to chest pass with a rugby ball. He helped us to learn to do side passes. Oakley thought it was a lot of fun to learn new passes.


We had to remember to look at our partner before we passed the ball. It was fun counting how many passes we were able to do.

Logan was very good at teaching us how to move around and look for a person to pass to. We had to think about where to run to so we were in a good place to be able to catch the ball. It was important to be careful because if we dropped the ball we had to give it to the other team.


Mrs C was very impressed with the title for this post that Arabella thought of.

Swimming into Collage


Gabriel made a collage of an orca by sticking pieces of ripped coloured paper on to a piece of black paper. He is the first one to be finished. Gabriel thought it looked really fantastic because the orca looked like a real one. Kambel noticed that the background looks like it has reflections in the sea. 


Other people in our class are working on creating owls, turtles, giraffes, penguins, hens and cats.

Friendly Japanese Students

Aki showed us a new game. We had to put our hands on our head and then quickly snap our hands onto a card with a certain letter.

Tiayo helped us to play the card game. It was fun when we snapped the cards. We laughed when Tiayo pretended to say one of the letters when they weren't there.

Toshi had a paper that he used to help him call out the names of the cards. We learnt to pay close attention to what letters he called out. 













Saho and Aki said we had to draw pictures for the cards. We had to colour them in. At the end of the card game they gave us some stickers.

The Japanese students performed a dance about fishermen catching salmon in a net. They were singing a Japanese song. They sang a few songs to the whole school.
