Washing hands

We were practicing how to wash our hands with the magic soap.
One push, rub it into your hands.
Always wash your hands after using the toilet and  before eating.

Class photos

Today we had a photographer take photos of our smiling faces.
He used a camera. What else can you use to take photos?

Buddy reading

Today we took our book boxes to read to room 9.
It was cool to show how we are learning to read.

Milk Week

This week is Milk Week.
We are very lucky at Ruapotaka School to be a  Milk in Schools school.
We have milk everyday.  Milk is very important for our bodies.
Do you know where milk comes from?

Buddy reading with room 9

As part of buddy reading this week we are sharing our learning from our blogs.
Can you share with your family too?

Hip hop, week 2

Today was our second hip hop lesson with Jess.
First we have to stretch so that we do not hurt our bodies.
Part of our dance is dabbing.
It is important to follow the instructions.

How very strange!

We noticed a butterfly around our swan plant a few weeks ago.
Now look! There are two very hungry caterpillars who are quite big.
It is very unusual to see caterpillars at this time of the year when it is nearly winter.
We hope that they can turn into a chrysalis and then butterflies.
