Term 2 - Week 9

On Monday we had a visit from the New Zealand Playhouse who put on a play for us called 'The Fairest of Them All'. In the show Snow White gets sent back to the forest by the Magic Mirror and needs the help of the Seven Dwarfs once again. The children loved the performance and there were many laughs. Here are some pictures from the performance:







Week 9 really was the week for visitors! We also had Jerri who used to work at Nayland Primary sometimes came to Room 8. Jerri is an author who has written a book called Kate and Caboodle. It is a fabulous story and the children loved the opportunity to listen to a story being read by its author.

The children may have talked to you about our new handwriting programme called 'Casey Caterpillar'. The photo below shows children practising some of the shapes needed to form letters correctly. More information will be coming home about this soon so keep an eye out.

We were also lucky enough to get some new sports equipment. After waiting a few days for some sunshine it was finally nice enough to go out and practise with them. Everyone listened carefully and threw the ball to their partner.
