Round up of Term 2 week 6

Hi Everyone,

This week we welcomed Zoe Dunning and her family to Room 1! Zoe had a great start to school with her first day being our trip to the Art Gallery.  We all had a fabulous time there and learnt a lot. Our focus was 'Koru drawings' inspired by local artists; Reuben Patterson, Gordan Walters and Lonie Hutchinson. 

Some of the groups were lucky enough to see the "Pip and Pop' exhibition.

Today Miss Duffell took the children for Art and they worked on koru drawings.

Archie concentrating. 

Peter and Zoe R. 

As you can see they first drew on the whiteboards.

This coming week I have another classroom release day on Tuesday.  Liz Hooker will be teaching. Liz spent some time last Wednesday on an app on the I pads called 'Book Creator'. With the children they made a book on the trip to the Art Gallery--sadly I can't load it on to the blog!!

Ethan O' Neill our last New Entrant for this term will have two visits next week before he starts on Monday June 20th. 

You could have heard a pin drop! 

I hope you are all enjoying the cheese rolls!!

Kind regards

Mary
