Cross Country

We had a great time last week at Cross Country. We have some super fast runners in Room 9. We were exhausted afterwards!
Here are some pictures of the day.

Silent Movie

We have finished our 2 minute silent movie! We had a great time producing this. The children in Room 9 did some fantastic acting. Here is some of our writing about the experience.


There were three main characters. Welcome to Room 9's talent. First up we have Boston. Boston finished the Boston marathon. Next up we have Omar. Omar did a move. Finally Louisa. Louisa made it across the monkey bars. I was happy. By Michael


Room 9 made Room 9's talent. I won and Boston was second. Louisa was third. Boston tried to run but he gave up. Stacey came up to Boston. He started to run again. He ran to the finish line. By Omar


Room 9 made a imovie. Boston was running. He slowed down. Louisa went on the bars. Omar danced. We watched it. By William




In Room 9 we are making a movie. Everybody is making it. Boston is running. It is cool. By Logan

Room 9 made a movie. It was exciting. I had a part by congratulating Omar. It was really fun. The movie is about pushing the boundaries. By Josh

Boston was puffing. He couldn't run. Come on Boston you can do it said Stacey. Boston thought he was in the Boston marathon. Boston ran and ran to the finish line. Louisa was on the monkey bars. Louisa thought she was in a circus and she made it to the end. By Ella-Marie

Our Place - a new Inquiry!

We made some sandcastles. We tipped water over them. The sandcastles fell down.



Then we saw a tent with tools, a blanket, a jacket, some canned food. We thought about what these things might be used for if was there was a natural disaster.



We looked at pictures of the slips in Nelson. We talked about what, when, where, why and how.
