Tuli explains a little more about Milk in schools!

When it is about 11 am Morris class has delicious cold milk to drink. We are so lucky to get it free and it is delivered to our school from Fonterra. Its very filling and gives people energy for a really active playtime!

The big Slurp

Today all around the world was the Big Slurp and people were celebrating being able to drink milk!  We decorated cow masks , then gathered in the hall to drink milk and moo together!!
Did you know that every day 170.000 children drink milk in school in New Zealand? Perhaps you are one of them!!

Let us know what you think of  the idea of having free milk in schools? Do you agree it is a great idea?

Geometric shapes by Aryan

Today we were learning about the difference between 2D shapes and 3D shapes. It was interesting to know that 2D shapes are used in the world around us and we can see them in many places!
I wonder if you can spot some around you.
What is your favourite 2D shape?

Measuring using centimetres

Last week we used our rulers to measure different coloured rods. It was really interesting. Then we had to use the rods to make certain lengths like 20 centimetres. We know that to measure accurately the item being measured needs to be on the first marking on the ruler which is set in a little bit.

We are now great rulers!! ( corny joke!!)

Making sandwiches

 This week we were learning about the food we eat and important knowledge for living well now and in the future. We learned that there are people who are food scientists and that their job is to make sure that the food we buy and grow is safe.  They test the food and the packaging as well so we are well looked after.
We also learned that bakeries and restaurants get ratings. Check them out .... you will be safe eating food if there is an A or B rating. It's your choice!

We made sandwiches on delicious multi grain bread. We used a scraping of  olive oil spread and then we could choose from  cheese, lettuce, pickles, avocado and tomato. We loved the freshness of the taste!

More about Touch Rugby

                        Touch  rugby

Today  Morris class  had  fun. We   went  on   the    court   for   a    warm  up   because  we   are  learning  to  play   touch   rugby.

Today   we   played   touch  rugby   with   the   ball   on   the   field.Next  we   played    games     like    zigzagging and   passing  to people.

We  made boys  teams  and   girls    teams  on  the  field    so    we  could organise the game. On  the  field  we played    touch   rugby    with    two    teams.

I    loved    touch  rugby     because    we   ran   to     chase     people.
