Well done for coming up with such fantastic costumes Room 11!  

Gymnastics Trip

On Thursday the 19th of June, we went to Waitakere Gymnastics in New Lynn for a morning of fun gym activities.  

First we did some exercises and stretches to make sure our bodies were warmed up...

 Then we moved around the different activities in our groups...


This group can't wait to get on one of the favourite activities: The rope swing! 

Brooke balancing on the high beam! 

Adam getting ready to swing into the foam pit! 

Jaxin trying to make his way out of the sponges! 

Erazmus getting ready for a big jump into the foam!


Who is that in the foam?   It's Mason! 

Leah carefully concentrating and making her way across the beam.



Thank you to all of our lovely parent helpers who came along on the day.

Pyjama Day!

On Tuesday the 27th of May, we had Pyjama Day at school!  
Here are some of the things we got up to on Pyjama Day in Room 11...
 First we did Jump Jam in our pyjamas!
 Then we waited to join in the pyjama parade!  
 Who will be called next?  Onsies, animal PJs or spotty pyjamas?  
 Some of us brought teddies to join in the PJ day fun! 
 Back in our class we snuggled up on the mat and brainstormed words to describe our PJs:
"COSY!"   "WARM!"    "SOFT!"   "FLUFFY!" 
 After a trip to the library in our snuggly pyjamas, we had a delicious treat...hot chocolate with marshmallows!   YUM!

In the afternoon we watched a mini movie and went to gymnastics with Room 12...

WE LOVE PYJAMA DAY!

Blackboard writing...

Have you seen the blackboard gallery outside our school hall?  
Each term every class gets to write on the blackboards and in week 10 it was Room 11's turn!  

The theme in Term 1: "Western Heights is..."
We wrote our thoughts on the blackboards.

 Please come and check out what we have written!
