Choir

On Thursday night the choir performed at the events centre. They sung amazingly and sat beautifully on the stage. Lots of teachers came and supported them as well as parents, family and friends. We are all very proud of all the students who participated. Well done to Maria, Cecillia and Te Whetu who were members of the representative choir and performed all three nights! We are very proud of yuo girls!! Here are a few photos of the children on stage! 

Museum Trip

Room 10 visited the museum as part of our inquiry unit. We have been looking at earth and how it has been created. We have looked at volcanoes and how the lava shapes the rock, we have looked at earth quakes and how these change the lands formation. While at the museum we got to look and touch many different styles of rocks. Some of them were really light and felt funny. Others were cool colours and really shiny. Also at the museum we looked at Ashburton and how flat it is, however not far away from us are some awesome mountains. The museum trip was a lot of fun and taught us lots of interesting facts. Here are some photos of us at the museum. 

Cross Country

Many children from Hampstead School participated in the annual cross country event. Some children participated in the fun run which is one lap, while some children ran 3 laps in the competitive race.. From there some even made it to Counties.... and better still a few children made it to the Canterbury Zones event!!! We are very proud of Angel in our class who will represented Hampstead School at the zones!! Here are some photos of children supporting the runners and also the school running in the cross country!!

Pretty in Pink

We all put in a lot of effort to dress in pink. We had this mufti day to support National Anti-Bullying day!! We looked at what a bully is and why it is important not to be a bully. We also looked at how we can help some one who is being bullied or what we should do if we are being bullied. Room 10 is pleased to be a bully free classroom!!!!! 

Autumn Fun!!!

We had fun out in the autumn leaves... we threw them in the air and at each other!! We then created some amazing autumn poems!! Check out some of our photos and poems!!! 

A mix of weather

Under piles of leaves

Trees with no leaves

Usually the weather changes

Maybe a bit of wind

Nice and warm in bed

All the leaves are brown

Under the blankets

Time for Easter

Unwrapping chocolate eggs

Mixture of weather

Nearly cold to freezing

Awesome it's autumn I can't wait to jump in leaves

Under the covers is where I like to be

Tell me when it's warm outside

Up, up go the leaves when they blow away

Mum can we have hot chocolate

Never think autumn is bad

By Mahalia

A time when we go outside

Umbrellas start to get used

The time when we play in the leaves

Under the tree

My birthday is in autumn

Now it's getting cold
