Storytelling in Room 10!

For the last few weeks, Room 10 students have been taking turns to read aloud to the class. We call it our storytelling time and each day we have someone different read us their favourite picutre book! It has been fantastic to listen to all the fantastic stories and especially the expression used when reading aloud!

School Disco

At 5 o'clock last Friday, the Y1 - 3's had their school disco. It was lots of fun! We made a HUGE train and went around the hall. They had a disco ball and the lights were lots of different colours.

Powhiri and Hangi

On Friday we were lucky enough to have a beautiful day for Green-Gold Enviro School Celebration!
We had a Powhiri in the morning, along with some fantastic speeches from some of our senior students. Later on in the day we went and watched the hangi being cooked and taken off. We then all got to have a taste of the hangi in a fantastic picnic on the field.

We loved the hangi food!

The Muritai Herald!!!!

Last term our writing topic was persuasive writing. We did lots of debating and discussing our ideas before writing a few pieces of persuasive writing.

We also designed an advertisement using persuasive language. After doing all this work Lily thought it would be a great idea to put some of our writing and adverts into a newspaper! We all agreed and so the MURITAI HERALD was born!!

It was a lot of work to put together a newspaper but we are very proud of what we have achieved! Here are some pictures of our finished newspaper. We have a copy in our class if you would like to see it up close!
