Show Day

On show day I saw some goats and calves and sheep. There were stalls and prizes to win and there was food to eat. It was fun! I was helping Jamie and Kristian on a stall and Jamie broke a jar of lollies. It was the coin toss and you can win a chocolate bar. Some people won after awhile. There were more stalls and I did some other things. I was watching the calves being led around the field but I got bored and went and did some other things. I tried to win $50 but I didn’t win it so I was not happy that I didn’t win. I got a free bar for helping and I gave it to Gordan he was happy and he ate it. I went home to watch TV.

Room 6 Tomarata School News/Notes/Comments

Hello Parents/Caregivers and families,

Hi everyone. The year is flying by...

It has been a very busy time for Room 6. We have farewelled Michelle Carmichael last week. She is a 3rd year teaching student from Auckland University. During the first 4 weeks of Term 3, Michelle had full control of the class and did a terrific job. The class adjusted well to her slightly different teaching style and routine and enabled her to learn and develop as a teacher.

We have a focus on Electricity this term - safety, generation, usage, sustainability and we will be looking and circuits and making are own circuits to insert into games the children will be developing.

Term 4 will have the theme of "Risk, Safety, and Response". We will look at a wide range of things from 1st Aid and Fire Safety to involving the students in assessing the risks different activities may pose at Camp.

Speaking of Camp, this will be held during the week 12-16 November at Marsden Point Christian Camp, One Tree Point. We are busy planning and preparing. Whilst some costs are still to be finalised, we have indicated in newsletters the cost will be approx $120 per student. Further details will follow in due course.

The enrolment process for the transition to Rodney College has begun. Interviews are coming up and testing for Year 8s will occur in Term 4.

Term 4 also sees Inter-school cross country and cricket. I am in the process of arranging some coaching sessions with Northland Cricket early in Term 4 - watch this space.

Show Day is the first Friday back after the October school holidays. All students in Room 6 are expected to participate and contribute - I would like to see either a lamb/calf, a garden, a pet, or sculpture from as many students as possible. All students will be required to make as many indoor exhibits as possible. It is much more fun for the students if they join in fully.

Take care.

GPM
