Mihi and Shared Kai

Thank you to all the family and whanau who came in to watch our Mihi's and share some kai with us! Enjoy the video!

Recycling

This morning Room 9 looked at heaps of garbage. A lady came and showed us how much rubbish we create at Enner Glynn School in ONE DAY! We felt sad about the rubbish. We felt sad because that rubbish will go to a landfill. Here is some of the rubbish that was there.

Plastic

Food Scraps

Paper

Cardboard

Mrs Langi gave us some ideas of how we could help. Here are some ideas. 

• We can recycle things like paper, bottles, yoghurt pots and food scraps.
• We need to keep our food scraps in our lunch boxes until lunch time and then put them in the worm bucket (remember the things that can't go in there like orange peel and plastic).
• We could wrap our sandwiches in baking paper.
• We could make our own muesli bars.
• We could start using canvas bags for our shopping.

Our classroom reuse and recycle boxes

Thank you

We loved the performance so much last week we thought we had better write to Bernard and Kuba and say thank you! We spend the week thinking about what we loved and what we learnt from their performance. Here is the email we sent to say thank you.

Dear Bernard and Kuba

Thank you so much for visiting Enner Glynn School in Nelson, New Zealand last week. We throughly enjoyed your performance, and I have to say I was as captivated as the students! My class decided it would be a good idea to write and say thank you for coming and tell you what we enjoyed about your show. The children have just chosen part of their writing to share with you as it would have taken you a long time to read it all! They are a year 1/2 class so all aged between 5 and 7. 

Thank you again for coming and sharing your inspiring performance with us! 

Kind regards Alice Whitehead and Room 9
