Advent begins

This is the first week of Advent, a word which means 'coming'.  We are preparing for the birth of Jesus at Christmas time and inviting him to come and be born in our hearts:

Ball skills with our sports coaches

Maths fun together

Money super heroes

Amy from ASB bank visited us today. She was teaching us about coins, notes and being Captain Cash, a super hero! Ask us to say our money rhyme: "Speed to your needs and wait for your wants." It has actions, too.

Golf stars!

Yesterday, our sports coaches taught us how to hold a golf club and putt towards a target. It was great fun!  

Many thanks

Many thanks to Mr White, for donating new alphabet books and games to the Rimu reading resources!  We love them.  :)

Didgeribone fun

We loved watching and hearing performance artist Tjupurru from Australia!  He played the didjeribone, which is an instrument blending a didgeridoo with a trombone. Tjupurru used electronic sounds too and had us all clapping and moving!
