A Special Person

Today we wrote about a person who is special to us.  Here are some of our stories….

My special person is Reef.  Reef helps me and he plays with me.  He makes me happy when I am sad.  He comes to my house.  When I go to his house he lets me play with his toys.  When I don’t have a friend Reef comes over to my house.  When I have to clean my room up Reef helps me.  When I hurt myself Reef helps me clean my room up.  Reef helps me when I hurt myself and he takes me to the sick bay.  When it is my birthday Reef surprises me.

I love Santa because he gives  me presents.  I cuddle him and he cuddles me back.  I love Santa.  Santa is good to me.

My special person is my Dad because he plays rugby with me.  He makes me super happy.  We go surfing in the summer.  My favourite thing to do with him is going surfing.  Everytime we go surfing we see little fish swimming around and jumping out of the water.  They are white.

My favourite rugby team is the All Blacks because they are fast.  I like them because I like the haka. By Caitlyn

Whaea Sandy

Our beautiful friend and Teacher Aide Sandy had her last day with us last Friday.  She is off to New World to work in the deli.  We loved having Whaea Sandy come in and help us with our reading and writing.  We also enjoyed playing fun games with her and her awesome dress ups!  Good luck at New World – we’re looking forward to visiting you there.

Snow!

It snowed at school!!  It was amazing, we got to go outside and play in the snow.  Here are some of our stories and photos.

I got some snow and I put it on my hand.  Spencer

Welcome to Alex

A big welcome to Alex Whittle who has moved with his family to Ohope and is our new friend in Kahukura.

Hairy Potter

Introducing our newest class member……  Hairy Potter!!  Hairy Potter started in Kahukura at the start of the term.  Every class member is going to have a turn to take him home and write a story about their experiences with him.  We had a story writing competition to decide who got to take him first.  Tom wrote the most interesting story and got to share the first adventure with Hairy.  Here is Tom’s story:

A Wild Thing is a kind of mammal.  It lives in the forest.   I think we should call him Hairy because he is Hairy.  I wish I could see a real Wild Thing.  I wish  could hear a Wild Thing  roar!

Lego Haka

We are getting really excited about the Rugby World Cup!!  We have been watching some vidoes of the haka on youtube.  This is one of our favourites

Welcome to Ashley and Callum

This term we have two new learners in Kahukura!  Ashley and Callum Giles are twins who have moved with their family from England to Ohope.  We have had lots of fun showing our new friends around the school and making them feel welcome.
