40 hour Famine

I just wanted to check in and see how everyone is going with the 40 hour famine??

What challenge are you doing?

Is it harder or easier than you thought? 

Of course if you are doing the Team Red Challenge (No technology) then you won't get this message until it's over. If you are in Team Blue or Yellow or Green feel free to share your stories!!

Best of luck Room 25ians!!

Whanau Time Reminder!

Dear Parents/Guardians, Families and Friends,

Just a quick reminder to let you know that Room 25 together with Room 2 is running tomorrow's Whanau Time (assembly). We will be sharing a German song at the the beginning and a Recycling video towards the end of the assembly. It would be great to see you there if you are able to make it!
It is scheduled to start at 9:45 until morning tea (10:35). Thanks for all your support!!

Room 25 Cross Country Superstars!

Top effort at cross country yesterday Room 25ians. You all gave it a stellar effort and I was very proud of all you. Big congratulations to Logan for making the team to compete against the other schools at Oratia next Tuesday.

Cross Country 2014. The Juniors started and we cheered them on, especially our Buddy Class Room 2!

Reduce, Reuse, Recycle

Hi Guys,
Here is our lyrics for our Recycle song, I know some of you wanted to practise...
Remember the melody is from 'Moves like Jagger' by Maroon 5.

Reduce, Reuse, Recycle

We’re saving our school

And it feels good

Were doing our part

Litterless  lunches

We’re living life green

And keeping things clean

You know what we mean

We’re feeding the worms

With our food scraps

Lets start thinking

Maybe perhaps

Keeping things clean

Make more things green

We wrote you a song

(Pause)

And it goes like this

Put papers in the bin -Don’t forget

Take home your rubbish - don’t throw it

Let’s Reduce, recycle

Reduce, reuse, recycle

Reduce, reu--se, recycle

Put papers in the bin -Don’t forget

Take home your rubbish - don’t throw it

Let’s Reduce, recycle

Reduce, reuse, recycle

Reduce, reu--se, recycle

We have a bush

we want to save it

Love to learn to lead

help us do that

We’re living life green

And keeping things clean

You know what we mean

It’s our planet earth

Let’s look after it

Check for the sign

it’s important

It’s your part and mine

we’ll all be just fine

We wrote you a song

(Pause)

And it goes like this

Put papers in the bin -Don’t forget

Take home your rubbish - don’t throw it

Let’s Reduce, recycle

Reduce, reuse, recycle

Reduce, reu--se, recycle

Put papers in the bin -Don’t forget

Take home your rubbish - don’t throw it

Let’s Reduce, recycle

Reduce, reuse, recycle

Reduce, reu--se, recycle

We got mail!!

Hard at work

Hi Room 25ians,

I hope everyone has had a great break and is slowly looking forward to coming back to school on Monday! I had a really great break with my family up north. It was so warm up there we even went swimming!! This week I have been busy getting everything ready for you guys to come back. On Tuesday and Wednesday the senior teachers went to a Google Summit where for two days we learned all about really cool educational apps and things that will make learning really fun for you guys! Knowing you guys, you will LOVE it!!

Here is a selfie I took with Ms Leader and Mrs Lupe

Now I'm in Room 25, I just finished doing your tables for the term!! Now I'll plan our week. See you all on MONDAY!!
