Well done Abbie


Congratulations to Abbie. She has been named Bream Bay junior sportsperson of the year. Abbie is the current NZ under 11 squash champion. Earlier this year she competed in the Hong Kong junior open.

She is also the 2nd ranked Under 13 girl in NZ. Not bad for a nine year old!

Here in room4 we have a buddy reading programme which enhances the juniors and the seniors reading skills by helping each other when they come to a word that they don't know. The juniors buddy breaks the word into chunks the juniors know and they sound the word out.

Halloween!

Gummies,lollypops and chocolate sweets
Willingly handed over as kids cheer
''Trick or treat.''
Screaming, spooking, scary shreiks
As ear piercing horror breaks
The silence of the darkness

Great White sharks












At great white sharks we had to pick a notable who has influenced chane throughout history. We presented our work on boards and had a "Night Of The Notables" to share our work.
Here are a few of the G.W.S with their boards.
David chose Sherlock Holmes.
Lucas chose Henry Ford.
Sam chose Helen Keller and I chose David Livingstone.

Zane's Poem

Pushing yelling screaming as mum was going through so much pain it felt like I was going through the same pain.
Not to worry it will be over soon
Lucky I am not a girl. When I got home Dad said to me, that the blame is on him
