New Headphones!!
Mr Preddy let us buy some new headphones! We can now listen to stories and songs on the listening post without disturbing the rest of the class! We are very excited!
Basketball with Mitch
On Monday last week, Mitch came to see us for the third and final time this term. He taught us some basketball skills like dribbling and controlling the ball, passing the ball around our bodies and through our legs. We have lots of fun with Mitch!

Art with Norman Sinclair
On the afternoons of Thursday the 8th and Friday the 9th of March we were lucky enough to spend some time with Norman Sinclair - the artist!
Norman uses watercolour in his paintings and he showed us how as we painted our own apples!
The paintings look great, and we are looking forward to having Norman back on the 30th to finish them off!

Goodbye Brayden
On Friday, Feb 24th it was Brayden's last day at Romahapa School.
His family have moved to Temuka and he now attends Winchester School.
We are missing Brayden in the Junior class but wish him all the best at his new school.

Kate starts school - Feb 20th
As soon as we arrived back from camp, Kate turned 5 and started school as a new entrant in our class.
Kate is the first member of her family to come to Romahapa.
She has lots of interesting stories to tell about her brother, baby sister and all the animals on the farm!
