WOW what an exciting day we have had!
This week we have been focusing on the story of the Ginger Bread Man for writing.
First we read the story and got to know the characters more. Then on Monday we made the dough and cut out the shapes, then we popped them in the oven to cook. Today we got to decorate them using 100's and 1000's, raisins and icing sugar. Take a look at our designs.

Welcome back Whanau
Today was such a fantastic day. We created a new class treaty and looked at what was important to us.
We based our art on a crayon box and how we are all different but learn in one space. We have to respect our diversity. Have a look.
At the end of term 3 we had the pacifica group sing. Viliami, Lenn, Sanford and Israel were in it. Here is a photo, can you spot them.
