BOOK WEEK
Book week was a lot of fun.
We dressed up as our favourite book characters and paraded on the front courts in glorious sunshine.

CAT in the HAT
We have been doing an author study on Dr. Suess.
We found out that he was born in America and named Theodor Suess Geisel.
When he wrote books he went by the name
Dr. Suess or he wrote his surname backwards and went under the name - Theo Lesieg.
He loved to make up words and use rhyme in his books.
He died 34 years ago at the age of 83.
We made our own "Cat in the Hat" hats.
We looked so cool.

We also did some awesome pencil sketches and made ourselves look like Cat in the Hat characters on the ipads.

BIG BREAKFAST
Last week we had a HEALTHY BIG BREAKFAST for our Junior children and whanau, as part of our Healthy Eating topic.
We started at 7:30am (although the teachers were here much earlier) and people came in and out until 8:30.
It was awesome eating breakfast and meeting with new people and catching up with others.
Lots of children ate new things they had never tried before. For example - tamarillo, scrambled egg and baked beans, to name a few.
Many parents were amazed just how much their kids could eat!!!
KAPA HAKA
The Kapa haka festival was on last week at Tamatea Intermediate.
It was great to see ten Room 2 kids take part in this. The performances were awesome and everyone looked great in the new costumes.
Well done everyone. You showed great commitment to Kapa Haka for over a whole term.
