Junior Tabloids

Hi Everyone,





A big thank you to all our parents who came and  supported your child at the tabloid sports today.  It was lovely to see the brilliant behavior of all the Pahoia children in a different setting and mixed with all the other local schools.

Pahoia school athletics

Dear Parents,

Yesterday down at Western Ave.  I was so proud of all the children in Room 7.  Their behaviour  was absolutely spot on.  In class today we did a reflection about how they felt when they got to the sports field  and saw how many people were going to be watching them.  The highlight of the day was pulling on the rope for the Tug of War.  The next favourite  activity was playing with the parachute.  We ended our reflection with how we felt at the end of the day and the resulting comments were that they felt tired but very pleased with themselves that they had attempted all the different activities.  Thank you to all the parents who were able to give support to our class.  Well done to the parents who were demonstrating their prowess at the high jump stand.

Term 4 2012.

Dear Parents,

This term we are focusing on the Arts - drama, music and movement.
Later on this term there will be a showcase evening when you will be able to come and see what we have been learning.  The Junior Department are studying the different eras from Walt Disney. The song that we will be singing is Heigh-ho from Snow White and I have put a you-tube link for the children to practice at home.   Happy singing.

Ag Day ---late additions.




Ag.day.

On Friday afternoon we made our sand saucers and a fruit /vegie animal or person. We had lots of fun making gorgeous designs with our flowers and leaves and we hope you enjoy looking at them.  Some of our lovely parents came to school just to lend a helping hand when it was needed, so we would like to say a big thank you to them.

cricket

Today we were learning how to play cricket.  The man called Don showed us how to make a little bird's nest with our hands so that we could learn how to catch the ball properly.  He also showed us how to throw a cricket ball and how to hold a cricket bat with two hands.  We had lots of fun when we played a game - the boys against the girls.  We had to hit the ball off the cone and try to hit the wicket.  The girls won the games both times, but we had a good time.  After the games ,we shook hands and said "well played."
