Special Visitors

 On Thursday we were lucky enough to have visits from 2 different lots of people. special visitors.  Harold and Victoria from Life Education are visiting Nelson Central School at the moment.  We were all very excited about going to visit Harold in his special trailer.  We learnt about different parts of our body and what they do and things which we can do to help keep our body healthy.

Here is what some of us wrote about the visit.

In the afternoon we had a visit from a group of adult students from NMIT.  They have come to New Zealand to learn English and learn all about life here.  We sung them our special school song, taught them the Hokey Tokey and we showed them what we do in Phonics.   

2D shapes

This week as for Maths we are learning all about 2D shapes.  Today as part of ICT Sally set us the challenge of photographing things around our school which are in the shape of the 2D shapes that we have been learning about.  Check out our great photos below! 

Interesting Lines!

Today we had a bit of fun in art.  We were learning about all the different types of lines that could make using our paintbrush.  What made it extra fun was that we worked on two big sheets of paper and we kept rotating positions.  This meant that we kept adding to what our friends had already painted.

End of Term

To celebrate the end of term we made gingerbread men.  We followed the recipe from the big book that we had been reading all week.  We also talked a lot about measuring as we had been focusing on this during maths.  They tasted yummy and were a great way to end the term!
