JUMP JAM

WOW: What an awesome display of high energy on Saturday at the Aurora Centre for the Strictly Jump Jam performances. We are so proud of the students from Ilam who were involved. They worked extremely hard to learn their routine in such a short time. Congratulations to all of you.

MATARIKI POSTERS

Congratulations to Raeann who won the Poster competition. Here is a photo of the winning poster. Well done to Lily who was second. Check out their hair styles:)

Last week our Year 6 students had the wonderful opportunity to go to see what is was like learning at Kirkwood. Check out some of the photos below.

COBHAM: This week while the Year 6 students were visiting Cobham, the Year 5 students from Room 1 joined with the Room 4 students. We had fun doing some Geometry Art and also completing a basketball Tower challenge. Great team work was involved, being able to communicate effectively with each other. 

 ART: During the last two weeks we have been working on Perspective Art: We have started with sketching plans in our books, then we moved onto the real art work. Miss Berkley has been taken us through the process. We are all learning a lot. FInished masterpieces will be on show next week.

Taylor's Mistake

We had a lot of fun learning about the Rocky Shore at Taylor's Mistake. Check out our pictures. 

ASK ME ABOUT WEEK 7

What a big week we have had even though it was a short week. 

Wednesday 5 June was WORLD ENVIRONMENT DAY....so Room 4 decided to pick up litter from around our school. Some of us went out the front of the school while the rest of us tidied up along the fence behind the school by the Uni. 

LOOK AT ALL THAT RUBBISH FROM A SMALL AREA

THURSDAY was our trip to Taylors Mistake. What a great day learning about the ecosystems and different tidal areas. A movie will follow soon.

FRIDAY SPORTS

Well done to all of Room 4 for their fantastic sportsmanship on Friday. Well done to the following students who have been awarded Player of the Day during the last 3 weeks.
