Autumn in Hawea Flat

What a beautiful time of year!

Come in and look at our Autumn art and poems in our classroom!

We have written about what a leaf is like, painted pictures with leaf rubbings and also taken photos around the school to see what autumn is like.

Let's enjoy it before the freezing winter comes!

Communication - Inquiry Term 2 2010

This term our Inquiry is about Communication.

The "Big Ideas" are:

• There are lots of ways to communicate
• We need to be able to communicate in different ways depending on the situation
• We can all communicate
• Technology has influenced how we communicate
• Communication evolves over time

What do we know about communicating?
What do we want to find out about?

ANZAC Biscuits

Before ANZAC weekend Room 3 made ANZAC biscuits. We discovered there is lots of measuring to be done and even more lots of eating to be done! Suprisingly there was not many biscuits left for the final photo but there was definitly evidence of chef's at work!
We wrote out the instructions for how to make them and also sent a recipe home for the Master Chef's.

Farewell Teal!

On Teal's last day of school at Hawea Flat we had a really cool party in the Grandview room.

We played pass the parcel and musical chairs. After dancing we ate the yummy morning tea our parents provided for us.

We will all miss Teal heaps and wish him and his awesome family all the best for Christchurch.
