Kiwi/Tui Redwood bushwalk

Today Room 7 went on a bushwalk.  

We packed our bags, made sure we had our sunhats, good walking shoes and our drink bottles.  

We left from school in one big long line.  

Check out the photos!

What a great time.  

Thank you to all our extra helpers today, you deserve a cup of tea and a lie down after that!

Back at school we had an icy treat

"Yummo!"

A special day where we go into different classrooms for some teddy inspired activities.

Author Craig Smith

He had lots of interesting helpers

"..he had one eye..."

Vikki asked, " Are you going to write anymore books?".  Craig Smith said "Yes."  We look forward to reading them!

Mia helped out by fluttering the butterfly on children's heads.
