Reading Time in Room 1

Today we talked about the importance of staying on task at Reading time by making sure we are doing lots of reading and writing so we can become better readers.  

Here are the Super Duper Room 1 Readers - 'reading to self' and 'reading to someone'.

Terrell's training session with the Pulse

Terrell, along with 6 other Parkvale players, was selected to attend a training session with the Haier Pulse on Saturday at the Hastings Sports Park.  He got to warm up and train with the players and then play a game.  Afterwards the children all received a ball and poster that they were able to have signed.  
A fantastic session.  Thank you Haier Pulse and Hawke's Bay Netball.

Discovery


We have Discovery every Friday in Manuka Hub. This week there were lots of interesting things to explore and do.  

Our focus at Discovery time is to be curious and to work together co-operatively.   Here are some of the creative, curious and co-operative Room 1 children ...
