Favourite Animals

We are off to Farmworld tomorrow to see lots of animals.
Today in the Orchard we drew some of our favourite animals and animals we might see at Farmworld.
Elias drew a great chicken!

Godzilla!

We have been learning about monsters from other cultures. We have been talking about Japan and the monster called Godzilla. He is big and scary and lives in the sea.

Japan have a red circle on their flag. It is the sun. Their rugby team are called The Blossoms.

Haka

We watched the All Blacks do the haka. Then we drew pictures of either ourselves or an All Black doing the haka.


We also watched the HES Haka HIva boys doing the haka. They have been practicing each week. Do you think they are as good as the All Blacks?

Go All Blacks!

We are learning about the Rugby World Cup. We have been learning about the flags from other countries. We watched the opening ceremony and we have watched the All Blacks haka. It was loud and exciting!

Cross Country Champions!

Yesterday Room 8 took part in the school cross country. It was awesome fun! We all tried our hardest...and some people came in the top 5! Wow! Well done to everyone. Room 8 rock!

Mother Duck's Eggs

When Mother Duck goes away, she covers her eggs with feathers to keep them warm.
This is Isabel's picture of Mother Duck's nest and eggs.
We wonder how many eggs are hiding under the feathers?

Taniwha

Room 8 have been reading the book Taniwha by Robyn Kahukiwa.
Today in the Orchard, we drew taniwhas in Kidpix.
We also found a cool picture of a taniwha on the internet,
Ryka worked really hard to draw a taniwha just like the one we found.
He did a great job - what do you think?

This is Ryka's picture.

And this is the one we found on the internet.
