Week 7, Term 3

Ben enjoyed being the teacher and reading The Little Yellow
Digger to the class.

We enjoyed learning how to weave for art.

Team Kea used a black and white photo of a kea
as the backing to our weaving.


We used blue for the sky, green for the kea, orange for
under the kea's wings and shades of brown for the
rocks as we were weaving.

We really enjoyed weaving.  It was hard going under and over
but we think our finished art is very cool.

Week 6, Term 3

It was so sunny we went outside and used chalk on
the concrete at maths time.  It was fun!


.

Sophie shared her news about winning the
champion fancy dress competion on
Saturday with her horse Charlie.


Fletcher shared his story about a house being shifted
from their farm on a very big truck with hydraulics.

Ella, Team Kea's Student Council rep visited us to tell
us about the cupcake competition next week. 
We can ice and decorate 3 cupcakes and then bring them
to school.  The student councillors are the judges.
Jayden, Noe and Kahu are patting Otis the goat.  Otis
has a round house made out of iron for shelter.  He is
very friendly and is grazing in the paddock
beside our school.

keep up the good work displaying our school values.

Team Kea observed the beautiful sunrise and then painted it.

The view is looking over our playground towards Fonterra. 
You can see the playground tower in Alyssa's painting.

We proudly shared our art with everyone else at Edendale
School at Celebration Time.

We really enjoyed doing our art and now have it on display
in our room.

Week 2, Term 3


Team Kea painted the amazing sunrise we had last week.
We started by painting the blue.

We used photos of the sunrise to help us with
our artwork.

Next we painted the pink and orange. 
We used indian ink to paint the playground
tower, trees and Fonterra's chimney. 
We are going to share them at Celebration Time
on Friday, 9 August at 2.30.
 
Come along and see our awesome art!!

Mrs Allison, manager of The Wyndham Rest Home came along
yesterday to tell us about the needs of the elderly residents
she helps look after.  We think we can also do something to
help them.  This would be an act of compassion.
