String Puppets
My students spent some time creating string puppets to sell at the recent Family Fun Night.
These were all sold. Congratulations young people. You did very well

Kiwi at the Cottage Garden
It was Road Safety Week and the kiwi decided to use the crossing! It knows how to stay safe!
Thanks to Stanley and Sione U, from Room 16, for building our garden 😊

Stomp Rockets
Had such fun with Room 19 today. They followed the instructions they were given and created rockets that they all successfully launched.
Here are the instructions. Let us know if your adults can follow them, team!
The nose cone starts with a circle. Cut from one edge to centre. Fold over to form the cone. Cellotape to rocket.
I looked at our photos and it looks as if the winning rocket flight goes to Elise and Jasmine. Their rocket came back after a wide turn!
Have fun launching your rockets
