Dental Bus visit

Today Room 8 visited the Dental Bus that has just arrived back at Te Anau School. We met Helen and Pip, the Dental Therapists. Hannah got to dress up as a Dental Therapist and check Yiyi's teeth. Yiyi got to sit on the special seat that lifted her up and down. We all got a picture of some food and got to decide whether they were 'Every day' or 'Treat' foods. We all got a cool sticker and had lots of fun at the Dental Bus.

Volunteer Firemen come to school.

Fireman Justin and Fireman Craig came to school to talk to us about how being Firemen make them good citizens. Fireman Justin wanted to become a Fireman because his Dad was one. Fireman Craig wanted to be a Fireman because he wanted to go in a Fire Engine. They both wanted to help people in our community. Being a volunteer means that they do not get paid any money so they both have other jobs.

Cross Country

Cross Country

Cross Country was exciting. Mr Excell clapped the clappers at the starting line. They sounded like a clap. We felt nervous. We ran fast around the grass paddock and through a prickle patch. We followed the sheep tracks through the prickle patch. It felt prickly, ouch! We jumped high over the hay bales. We sprinted to the finish line. When we crossed the finish line we got a juicy mandarin to eat. Cross Country was the best!

Our poems for Mum.

Rose and Hoppy

We love the baby bunnies. Their names are Hoppy and Rose. They are mini lop rabbits and are 8 weeks old. They are cute and cuddly. They feel really soft and snuggly. Rose and Hoppy like to eat carrots and celery. They live together in a hutch because they are sisters and they love each other very much. We hope Rose and Hoppy come back another day.

Sharing our reading

Room 8 visited Southern Stars and Fiordland Kindergarten this week. We read stories to the kids and the teachers. We shared stories with the kids because we are learning about how to be good citizens in our community. Being a good citizen is being a good helper and being kind and caring to other people.
