Thoughts are private... words are public.

Kia ora everyone,

Room 12 were given a challenge - to squirt out all the tooth paste from a tube and then put it back in again using a spoon and toothpick. They quickly discovered that it was pretty impossible! We discussed how this task is like the words we say. When we say things that hurt others, they make a big mess and we can't take them back. Saying sorry might help, but it won't take back the hurt that someone feels. Room 12 will remind themselves of this challenge to help them be RED in the classroom and playground.

         

First Day Madness

Kia ora,

We are already into Week 4! Time sure does fly. Check out what we got up to on the first day.. children were in relay teams and had to run and stick 4 post-its on their team member then tag another team member to do the same. The objective was to have fun, cheer on one another and be the first team to have successfully stuck all of their post-its on their team member.  Luckily we didn't have too much wind! Room 12 also got stuck into a classroom scavenger hunt - hunting for pink clues and answering questions.
