Hockey.

On Friday we had so much fun with Sport NZ as they came in to teach us hockey.  We got to do warm up and drills with the hockey sticks and played against each other in teams.  We are already looking forward to next Friday’s session. Here are a couple of pictures:

Cook Island Week.

Week 3 has been a very busy week with so many celebrations. Good Shepherd School celebrates our multicultural school with our Cook Island Language focus.  We looked at the culture through our reading and made fun fact files. We were also lucky to have Alessandra and the cultural leaders teach us a Pure (prayer) to sing. 

We learnt Aro’a mai te Atua iaku.  See if you can say/sing this pure too.

Aro’a mai te Atua iaku. 

Aro’a mai te Atua iaku 

I te au mea taku kite nei 

Te anuanua kua iti mai ki roto iaku 

Aro’a mai te Atua iaku 

My God loves me 

My God loves me 

And all the wonders I see 

The rainbow shines through my window 

My God loves me

Room 6 Assembly.

Last week Room 6 performed their assembly. Our main entertainment was a drama circle on occupations. We also displayed our mixed media we made in term 2. Some people also shared about what they put on their art and why. We all had so much fun preparing and presenting our assembly.

Here are some pictures of our assembly: 

Egg sitting

he last few days we have been learning about keeping ourselves safe. For the programe we did egg sitting, the challenge was to keep the egg safe and not break it or leave it at home. If you break it you were out of the challenge. We drew faces for on the eggs. We brought our eggs to school so they would go to daycare and at the end of the day we took them home for dinner.

GSS Book Week 2019
Room 6 was hungry for books during our book week. We had a whole week celebrating all things books. We had author visits from Stu Duval and James Russell. Stu presented workshops on storytelling, cartooning and writing. James shared his books and told us stories. We did lots of cool book week activities in class like making dust jacket covers, wanted posters, bookmarks and story cubes. Finally our favourite day arrived, Friday. We got to dress up as our favourite characters and partake in the literacy treasure hunt. Overall book week is a fantastic week every year. Room 6 LOVES BOOK WEEK!
Here are some photos from our time:
