Mr James's Post on Thursday, 23 March 2017

Everyone had a great time tubing today. We also learned some new games and heard some stories tonight.

Day one of our Marae stay.

Marae stay is going great so far, everyone had a go at rafting and a swim at the hot pools.

How does electricity work?

Today we had a go at using our Makey Makey kits. Our learning was to find out how an electrical circuit can be turned on and off.

Why? 
The light switch in our class broke and we haven't had lights for a few days. So we wanted to explore how the switch actually worked.

Update: 

We actually had lights because Nathaniel was very thoughtful and brought some lamps into class.

Week 8 term 1 Camp week!

We are leaving for Camp Wednesday morning. All students need to come to school at the normal time with their camp gear. Parents travelling to camp can come at this time as well, we expect to leave at 10am.  Check the gear list here.

We will return from camp at approximately 2pm on Friday. Students can go home at this time if a parent/ caregiver is able to collect them.

Students who have medication to bring on camp should make sure it is clearly labelled and hand it to Mr James on Wednesday morning.

Mystery Skype

This morning we had a mystery skype chat with a class from San Dimas , USA. We asked questions back and forth trying to find out where in the world each class is.
