Room Three is a class of twenty one year 2 children. We live in Oakura which is a fifteen minute drive from New Plymouth. Our school is close to Mount Taranki and also right by the sea so we like to use our environment as much as possible. We hope you enjoy our work in progress.

This morning we were amazed to see a beautiful rainbow as we travelled to school.

Rainbow
Red is the colour of the flaming dragon blowing out fire.
Orange is the colour of a sparkling monarch butterfly.
Yellow is the colour of a gleaming safety jacket.
Green is the colour of a cactus gleaming in the hot sun.
Blue is the colour of the sparkling ocean shining in the sun.
Indigo is the colour of deep dark caves.
Violet is the colour of the shiny cutter in room three.

Koru The Kiwi

Cecile,Wendy and Koru came to visit our school. We had a water safety competition and some children received prizes. Lots of children had hugs and high fives from Koru. We can't wait until next swimming season.

Kereru

Ruby and her Dad have been looking after a Kereru which banged into their window and damaged it's wing. The good news is the kereru is all better and has flown back to his home in the forest. We were really lucky to see a kereru in our classroom.

Gymnastics Fun

We have been having lots of fun at the New Plymouth School of Gymnastics learning to jump, balance,forward and backward roll and walk along the high beam.It's been really good for our hand eye coordination.

Taranaki Has The Shield

Wonderful news!
Taranaki won the Ranfurly Shield and now we can keep it all summer.
Hunter's Dad brought it to our classroom for us all to have a hold.
