Pets Day

On Tuesday 20th Little River School had Pets Day. Almost everyone brought his or her favourite pet to school. There were lots of animals such as cats, dogs, lambs, horses and many more. There was a book fair where people could buy books. Some animals were dressed up and walked around the ring. There was a dog obstacle course where the owners got prizes for how fast they got their dogs round the course. The miscellaneous pets prize giving was away from the other judging so the other animals wouldn’t scare them or hurt them/attack them.

Inside the community hall, which is adjacent to the school and Little River Domain, held the inside competitions such as the sand saucers, vegetable creations and floral arrangements.

HEALTHY EATING JINGLES

This term our topic is HEALTHY EATING, and in our house groups we made up jingles about the 4 C’s-COOK, CLEAN, COVER and CHILL. First we would write the jingle out on paper, then we would record the jingle on garage band. Once we had finished our jingles we would show the class.

Art

Room Two have been doing art with Mrs Wilson and we are designing an underwater scene. The frame on the outside is a Maori design. The underwater creature you have picked has to come out of the frame. I'm going to do a dolphin.
