Thank you Room 3!




Thank you Room 3 for being such an amazing class! I will always remember this class and you will hold a special place in my heart as you were my first 'real' class.

Remember when you see me around the school grounds next year let me know what you have been up to and also remember I am always here if you ever need someone to talk to.

All of you are great children. Your ability to work hard, have fun and be caring towards each other is inspiring. I know later in life you will all be successful in what ever you do. Remember if you see me when you are older in the streets make sure you come and say hello to me, it will make my day!


Take care.

Have a safe and happy holiday.

I will miss you.

Miss Taylor






End of year Shared Lunch

To celebrate the end of the year we went outside to the field and had a shared lunch. There was lots of yummy food



We got to thank Ms Ingram for all her hard work over the year.



We ate lots and lots of food!



We even had presents. It felt like Christmas. We decided to do Secret Santa. We each drew a name out of the box and we had to buy or make them a gift. We wrapped them up and wrote their name on it and we didn't tell them who it was from. It was fun watching people open their presents and the secret santa revealing themselves.

Santa comes to School!

On Wednesday we heard all this tooting going on outside. Room 3 wondered what the noise was all about. We went running out onto the field to find Santa in a car! He even came with lollies for everyone!

After school we didn't go home because we were lucky enough to have a sleepover at school.

We had a yummy afternoon tea as everybody came with something yummy to eat.



First thing we did was rotating around four activities. The activities were lego, board games, chalk art and playing on the playground.

We had a BBQ Tea. We got to eat sausages, chips, carrot sticks and salad.


We got put into teams for a treasure hunt. We ran all over the school looking for the clues. When we got back we had to make a puzzle and then we got a prize.



After the treasure hunt we had a class quiz. We got asked questions about everyone in our class. Two groups drew so we had to have a deciding question. The question was - What is Miss Taylors Pet and its name. Group 5 won they were Joe, Lily, Kaikohe and Tom.
We had a yummy pudding of chocolate and hokey pokey icecream with strawberries. It was Yum!
We got ready for bed and watched a movie called the two brothers, it was sad.




It was exciting to sleep at school in the hall with all our friends.



Joe, Piper and the teachers were the last ones to fall asleep.

The next day....
We watched two Dr Seuss movies while we waited for everyone to wake up. Tom was the last one to wake up!
We had a yummy breakfast of toast, milo, sausages, cereal and fruit.

We played Splat and other games.




We were all exhausted!


After morning tea our parents came to pick us up! and we got a treat to take home with us.
I felt overjoyed because it was so much fun. Lily
I felt amazing because we got to play with our friends all day on Friday and Saturday morning. Grace

I felt joyful because we got to stay over with Miss T and Mrs Gibson. Sam
It was maginificent because we got to play games with our friends and adults. Taylah
