DID YOU SEE IT?

This morning there was a huge hot air balloon in the school grounds. It was to start the celebrations of our 150th Jubilee which will be held at Labour Weekend.

The balloon was already up at 7.15 when Mrs Strand got to school.

It was enormous!!

Some of the adults had to help to hold it down.

The burners filled the balloon with hot air. It made a loud noise.


A BIG THANK YOU TO THE LIVINGSTON FAMILY.

First we made some large swirling shapes and then we used the vivid to define the shapes. After that we coloured in brightly and did some mosaic on the parts that we wanted to stand out. Enjoy!

OMNI GYM FUN

For the last 2 Wednesdays we have been to the Omni Gym in Onekawa.
We have learnt to stretch before we start and how to jump, land and support our own weight.
 



On the trampoline we had to stretch up high and point our toes.


"Look at your toes." On the rings.

Learning to do a backwards roll properly.

Over the horse.

Front support, and swing.




Swinging as high as you can.  Hold on!

Concentrating and balancing.


"Look at how high I can go."  On the spring board.


Jumping in the right spot so that you can jump really high.


Walking backwards up the mat and then back down again.


Balancing and walking straight ahead.  On the beam.

Run as fast as you can, into the foam pit. GO!!


Climb, don't swim.

Who will be first?  Quick quick quick!!
