Ss is for Stethoscope

A big thank you to Olivia B who brought her stethoscope in to school for the S Table, we all had a go at listening to our heart beats!
Thank you Miss Olivia!

Letter to a 5 year old on her first day of school

This a letter written by NZ designer Kelly Coe to her daughter on her first day of school. I thought I was a beautiful wee letter for her to read when she is older and thought all you lovely mums have experienced this same thing and thought you may enjoy it also.

Mittens for Winter

Today the children received a pair of mittens each from the Mid Canterbury Red Cross Volunteers! Each child got a pair to keep. The Mid Canterbury Red Cross Volunteers kindly made and donated the mittens for the 5 year old children in our school. The children were so super excited to get their mittens, most of them wore them after school!

Here are some photos of the children with their mittens on.

Assembly Sharing and Prayers

Well done to all the wonderful children who did the prayers and the sharing in assembly on Friday. Every child from Room One had a role to play in the sharing and prayers which was really cool. Thanks to all the parents who came and watched and supported Room One, the teachers were extremely impressed with the number of parents we had!

Here are two wee photos taken at the start of assembly while the school was walking in.
