We had to use scissors, glue and pencils to create our wooly sheep.
The strips of paper were curled around pencils.

Wool is soft and warm.

A farmer shears the wool off the sheep.
The wool can be made into clothing to keep us warm.

Healthy Lunches

Some international students learning how to cook made us healthy lunches.
We enjoyed chicken sandwiches,  fruit salad and ANZAC biscuits.

Making butter

What else can be made from milk?
We put cream and salt into a jar and then shook and shook!
It was amazing to find we had made butter.

Milking a cow

We pretended to milk a cow using a rubber glove and water.
It was really hard to get the water to squirt into the bowl.
Farmers use milking machines to make it easier to collect the milk.
When do you use milk?

Tangrams

We worked together to solve the puzzles.
Did you know tangrams have 7 pieces?
What other shapes could you make?

Egg shell gardens

Look at our egg shell gardens. What will happen?

ANZAC

After our school ANZAC service we have put up a display in the office foyer.
Look at and read about the soldiers who helped keep New Zealand a safe place.

Bees are our helpers. We like to eat their honey. Did you know they make honey for them to eat?
Have you ever seen worker bees collecting nectar from flowers?
What do you like to have honey on?

Our new school sign

We have three new signs at our school gates.
Can you see something the same as on your uniform?
Why do we have Mount Wellington on the sign?
Our school motto is Kia Kaha, be strong.

From farm to table

We are learning how hens help us by laying eggs for us to eat.
How do you like your eggs cooked? We made the shape of hens with sticks.
