Our fast and furious!

We had our Cross country on Thursday 14th of September. The weather was perfect! We all did our best and had a great time! Among us there were two fast and furious runners; 'LE and BH'. LE came second overall in year 1 girls and BH came third overall in year 1 boys. Well done both!

It will be our Cross country day on this Friday from 1:45 pm. We hope many parents are able to come and cheer us. Hope to see you all there!

Special Speaker Mr. and Mrs. McKeen

Last Friday we had special speakers Mr. and Mrs. McKeen in the hall. He came to talk to us about our Inquiry topic 'Transportation' . He was wearing the Air New Zealand pilot uniform, and he showed us how his work and the planes he controlled over the years. He also showed us the timeline of the flying objects that were very educational. The size of airplane engine was so big like a giant foot (MB)! We are very fortunate to have such knowledgeable speakers to come and talk to us! We are very lucky!
