Welcome to Term 2!

I hope you all enjoyed the school holidays and are ready for another term full of learning and fun. 
 I spent 12 sunny and fun filled days on the Gold Coast of Australia with my family over the break, the first time we have been overseas on holiday together.  My favourite time was spent in Surfers Paradise.


Week One was a busy one for Room 7.  
Firstly we welcomed two new children to our class,  Bryn and Sion have had a great first week getting to know their new classmates and checking out all of the cool learning resources in Room 7.


The whole class worked on a new puzzle.  

It was quite tricky and took perseverance and team work to complete!


On Friday Redwood school held a 'Fields of remembrance' ceremony to mark ANZAC day.   
  Together Room 7 created a wreath which was placed at the bottom of the flag pole
by Taylor and Bryn.   
Ka maumahara tonu tātou ki a rātou, we will remember them.


Mrs Goodin spoke
Every class presented a wreath



Just before the ceremony Taylor's mum came into class to show us a jacket worn in WW2.  The children had a lot of questions, and had the chance to feel the jacket.  They were amazed at the good condition of the jacket and how heavy it was.
Thank you for sharing this special garment with us.


Thank you Kerrianne and Taylor
