E6 Swimming Stars

Today we were so excited because we had our first swimming session in our school pool.  We are so lucky to have a school pool that is heated.    Some of us were a bit nervous because we haven't been in the school pool before.  But we had a try and we discovered it was great fun. 

 We got to have a big play while Mrs Graham and Miss Pauley watched all our clever swimming tricks and swimming skills.

We can't wait till Friday afternoon when we can say 

Let's go Swimming again!

Using the ipads

 Today we went to see E7.   We used the ipads together.  

We had lots of fun with our buddy discovering a new app called Reading Raven.   We had to match alphabet letters to alphabet sounds, and practice tracing over letters correctly.  




Mrs Graham and Miss Pauley thought we were all amazing at taking turns, listening to each other and helping each other when it got tricky.  

 

Tino Pai E6 and E7!!  What super star learning and super star team work. We had a fabulous learning session together!

Reading Raven is a real favourite of ours!

Parents and Whanau...

If you have an ipad you might like to purchase the reading raven app.  It would be  great for your child to use as part of their home learning!

Swimming

Today we went swimming in our school pool with E7.  

It was nice and sunny, but the water was a bit cold.  We didn't stay in for long but we had lots of fun getting used to our school pool!  Can you see the colourful sea creatures painted on the bottom?

 Lucia held on to the pole and showed us her kicking.

Kingston blew the ball along the top of the water.

 Megan showed us her super duper gliding and floating!

Jeven and Anika showed us how they hold the flutterboard with rocket arms!

Charlotte practised putting her face down into the water.  She blew lots of little bubbles!

We are very lucky to have a school pool to swim in twice a week during Term One.  Just watch us become water safe and water confident! What a fabulous way to end the week on Friday afternoons!
