Creative Junk

This week we all made models out of junk that we bought from home. We painted them when they were finished and then had to give a talk to the class about the model that we had created. We took pictures for our R.O.A.D Folders and we also drew pictures. It was messy and fun making them. We made a big variety of creations. Some people made one and some people made two. Here are some photos.

Athletics Day


                  ATHLETICS  DAY       BY LEON


Yesterday the whole  Harewood   school   kids   did   athletics . My favourite thing was sprints and  build  up. Our  first  thing  we   did  was  egg  on  spoon  but   it  turned out it was a   cricket  ball  on a  spoon.  Then   we  did the three legs race. 


 
                              ATHLETICS DAY BY EZEK
On Wednesday the 23rd of October Harewood School had Athletics day. Everyone did different things at different times. We did it for the whole day. I enjoyed discus and the obstacle course the best. In long jump I was a hippo. And for effort I got 30 points for all things and it equals 270 and for 1st 2nd and 3rd 80 points. There was long jump, high jump, long distance, relays, obstacle course, sprint, shot put and discus.

Yesterday at Harewood school it was athletics.

I liked the sprint because there was a wheelbarrow

race. Holly was holding me. It was very fun

and very awesome. That was the best day ever

in my life.

Sherlock Bones

Sherlock Bones is a dog and he is a detective. He helped two puppies to follow  some directions that their mum had written. They were directions to find the bones that she had hidden. We have been doing lots of activities where we have to follow clues with words like north, south, east, west, left, right, clockwise and anticlockwise. We  had  lots  of  fun.

Maori Legends

This term we have been listening to and reading lots of Maori Legends.  We enjoyed acting out parts of them. We also learnt to art which included Koru Patterns. Here are some of the pictures that we made.
