Our End of Year Trip to the Beach

Yesterday we were so excited because we went on the bus to Days Bay with all the Junior classes to celebrate the end of school for 2013.  We got to build sandcastles on the beach and collect some shells.  We paddled in the water and jumped some waves.  

B J Bear came to see us.  We sang The Wheels on the Bus with him.  Charlotte and Joshua tried to give B J a high 5 but he tricked us and moved his hand away too quickly!

 After lunch we got our face painted and went on a scavenger hunt.  We found some treasures along the beach and sat quietly listening to all the sounds we could hear.  We had a turn on the bouncy castles and played some sports games.  

Before we went home Harriet the Clown came and put on a show for us all.  While we watched the show we all had lemonade ice blocks!  

What a fabulous trip Mrs Gwilliam organised for all of us.  We went back to school tired but happy!  What a great way to spend one of our last days together!

Our E6 Term 4 Superstar

Each Term at Eastern Hutt School Mrs Henderson (our school principal) gives out a very special award to one person from every class at our school.  This award is for somebody that shows excellence in all that they do.  That means that we give our very very best, always.

Our excellent learner in E6 for Term 4 is Eva!

Eva gives her very very best.  

Eva tries super hard, and when it gets tricky she just takes a big breath and tells herself she can do it!

You should see her beautiful artwork.  She takes her time and great care to to finish some amazing masterpieces.

Eva is an expert at helping people.  If you ask her to help she says "sure I'll do that" with a big smile on her face.

Eva knows how to work quietly and follow instructions.  She is good at thinking about new ideas too!  

Way to go Eva - we are so proud of you and we think you deserve Mrs Henderson's special excellence award!

Our E6 Term 3 Super Star

Each Term at Eastern Hutt School Mrs Henderson (our school principal) gives out a very special award to one person from every class at our school.  This award is for somebody that shows excellence in all that they do.  That means that we give our very very best, always.

Our excellent learner in E6 for Term 3 is ... Joshua

Mrs Henderson came and gave out the certificates at our Junior School Assembly this week.

Joshua always gives his very very best.

He can be super quiet and is always thinking about being in the right place and doing the right thing.

Joshua is a super duper listener.  He thinks really hard about what we are learning, and what others are talking about.   

Joshua always shares really cool news and ideas with us.  

He even taught us a song about being H-A-P-P-Y and we sing it all the time in E6!

He has worked hard to learn how to ask interesting questions this year and now he uses the 5 wh's like a superstar!  

Joshua has the best manners in E6! 

He always says 'thank you' and 'excuse me please'. 

Joshua tries extra hard.  He knows how to sometimes have a go on his own when he is learning new things and he knows how to ask for help when he is stuck.

Joshua is a special friend to all the children in our class.

He loves to laugh and have fun with everyone, and he is good at making other people feel happy.

Joshua has a positive attitude towards school.  He loves coming everyday, and we just love having him in our class!

Tino Pai Joshua, well done!

We think you deserve Mrs Henderson's special excellence award and we are so proud of you!

Our Term 3 Class Party

We have finished another busy term of learning in E6.  We decided as a class to have a special party lunch to celebrate how super we all are!

We all helped to set the tables for the party.   We put some pretty flowers into some jars and put them on the table.  We all brought a special plate of food to class to share with our friends.  We put the food out on the table nicely.





We love to spend time with each other in E6 doing special things together ... and we love parties!
