Wow what a week! Our spider web amazingly turned into a
bear cave and then a polar bear’s ice cave appeared. The children had lots of
great ideas of what to add to our Artic scene.
Tom: We need more ice, put it everywhere on the mat.
Dougal: Igloos and snowflakes.
Tom: we could put snowflakes on the trees.
Kai: We might need to make some fish. Someone can dress
up as a polar bear and eat fish.
Charlie M: Not real fish (waving his hand in front of his
nose.)
Tom: We might need some blue sheet for water.
Then on Wednesday we went to see the Year 8 performance
of “Too Many Elephants in the house” which was a great success.
Olympia: I want to do the play again. Because I want to
see it again.
James: I like watching it because I like the chairs.
Patrick: I liked the giant box the elephant came.
Jock: I like Eric letting the elephants out.
Peter: I loved it seeing the story.
Zeke: I like the bit when we had to shout out the
elephants.
Also I was called over this afternoon by Toby and his
friends as they had set out chairs and props to put on their own performance of
Too Many Elephants.
After the play Toby announced, “Come back tomorrow to see
Too Many Hippos and the Too Many Monkeys.”
The children also discussed who live in houses and made
comments that some people do not live in houses and they wanted to help. They
have decided to make cupcakes to sell to the Senior Boys on Wednesday 4th
June to raise money for the Hutt St centre for the Homeless. If anyone would
like to donate cakes on the day that would be great. More details closer to the
date.
Thanks
