Water Pipes

Brian visited our classroom and showed us all the different sized pipes they use to get our water to our houses from the Maitai Dam. This is a big old pipe with lots of rust growing inside it! They are replacing these with plastic pipes because plastic ones don't rust.

Parents' and Grandparents' Day


We sang our favourite songs, read stories we had written about water, read story books and we danced. The folk dances we like the best are Pop Goes the Weasel and Seven Jumps. It was an exciting afternoon.

Pyjama Day

Here are Maddy, Grace O. and James in their pyjamas.

My pyjamas are pink. They have pretty patterns on them. My Mum bought them for me. The patterns are different kinds of leaves. I'm wearing them today. It is the best day of my life.

Today it is pyjama day. I've got stripey pyjamas on. Mia has some bratz on her pyjamas. I love mine and Mia's. I like Josephine's with cows on too. I like Frankie's as well. But Dianne is sick. So she can not come to school today.
