kia ora! Welcome to Room 6's blog for 2017. We are an energetic Year 5/6 class and our teacher is Miss Coffer. We are looking forward to working together and learning lots of exciting and new things this year! Check our blog regularly to see what we have been up to. We would love to read your comments.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Have a safe and happy holiday! This year has been full of happiness, laughter, tears, and some up and downs, but overall Room 6 has been a fun filled class.
Today at school we celebrated Diwali! Students could choose to dress up if they wanted to. Look at how beautiful Prarthna and Svasti look in their outfits. We love the bright colours!
Check out this video below that explains one of the stories behind Diwali:
Today we went on a trip to MOTAT. We were looking at technology and how it has changed over time. We loved seeing what technology was used in the "olden" days. We did this trip as this term our focus is technology. Later on in the term we will be creating our own inventions! Watch this space....
For Assembly this Friday we are performing Rocket Man with Room 5.
Callum from Room 5 is going to be playing on the piano.
Here is a video of him playing. Remember keep practising Room 6!
She packed my bags last night pre-flight Zero hour nine AM And I'm gonna be high as a kite by then I miss the earth so much I miss my wife It's lonely out in space On such a timeless flight
And I think it's gonna be a long long time 'Till touch down brings me round again to find I'm not the man they think I am at home Oh no no no I'm a rocket man Rocket man burning out his fuse up here alone
And I think it's gonna be a long long time 'Till touch down brings me round again to find I'm not the man they think I am at home Oh no no no I'm a rocket man Rocket man burning out his fuse up here alone
Mars ain't the kind of place to raise your kids In fact it's cold as hell And there's no one there to raise them if you did And all this science I don't understand It's just my job five days a week A rocket man, a rocket man
And I think it's gonna be a long long time 'Till touch down brings me round again to find I'm not the man they think I am at home Oh no no no I'm a rocket man Rocket man burning out his fuse up here alone
And I think it's gonna be a long long time 'Till touch down brings me round again to find I'm not the man they think I am at home Oh no no no I'm a rocket man Rocket man burning out his fuse up here alone
And I think it's gonna be a long long time And I think it's gonna be a long long time And I think it's gonna be a long long time And I think it's gonna be a long long time And I think it's gonna be a long long time And I think it's gonna be a long long time And I think it's gonna be a long long time And I think it's gonna be a long long time
This afternoon the senior syndicate had Mrs Robb come and talk to us about how much sugar is in some of the foods we eat. We could not believe how much was in some of the drinks especially juices. It was a great afternoon where we had the opportunity to read a variety of packet labels ourselves too.
Thanks Mrs Robb, you rock!
