Harold

Room 1 enjoyed 2 lessons with Harold this week.

We learnt about being a good friend -

we need safe hands - ringa manaaki

we use safe words - Kupu pai

and we have safe feet - waewae manaaki.

We also learnt about using warm fuzzies - saying and doing nice actions.

So keep you bucket full room 1.

Buddy reading

Room 1 where lucky to demonstrate their developing reading skills to room 5.  They were working on fluency and phrasing, one to one matching and enjoyment of the story.

Thanks room 5 for sharing your time with us.

Wibble Wobble

Room 1 made traffic light jelly this week.  They got some amazing language and made their taste buds dance with excitement..

Thank you for being so patient Room 1.

Remember to wibble and wobble.

Stop, Look and Listen

Room 1 and 2 had a surprise guest on Monday. 

Ronald McDonald.

He had a very important message to tell the children at St Joseph's - Road Safety.

We learnt about crossing the road, making it click and keeping safe on the footpath.

Thanks Ronald.

Groovy

Thanks Visique for the fabulous sunglasses.

Room 1 look so good and they are learning about keeping their eyes safe.

Thumps up Visique!

Welcome!

Room  1 have fully embraced the start of 2017.  

They are settled, focused and challenging themselves with their new learning.  

They have been learning about warm colours and using that knowledge to collage one of God's creations.

Keep up the great work room 1.
