Snow on the mountains around Pahoia!

On Monday at Pahoia we could see fresh white snow on the hills. The snow was very easy to see from the school. We could feel the cold blasts of air coming down from the mountain and it was a wonderful sight. Lots of students where excited to see snow. We all can't wait for snow camp hopefully there will be snow for us then.  By Julia.

Pahoia School Cross Country

Friday was our School Cross Country. It was fantastic to see our Houses showing amazing team spirit, cheering their team mates on and being so positive! Well done to everyone who put in their best effort and to the winners on the day!

Buddy Class!

Today Room One had a fantastic afternoon sharing and learning with Room Eight.  Our Year 1 buddy class came to share their Autumn Leaves cinquain poetry.  They had also created colourful autumn leaves artwork.

Once they had shared, we shared a little about our new iPads.  In groups we used Puppet Pals to take the leaves from Room 8's art, photographed a background and recorded some of the poetry.

As seniors in our school our aim was not to show our buddies how to make the animation, but to help them learn and do it themselves.  At times we did it well, but there were parts we found difficult!

Check out the video created with all our animations.

The World is a Changing!

Term Two has arrived and this term we are exploring Change in Science.  There are so many things changing around us in the world.  Some things we expect to change, some things we aren't even aware of and others might scare us a little.

We are beginning our term by just exploring.....thinking about what we already know about and then looking into what things in the world are changing that we haven't thought too much about.

If you are reading this post, we would love your thoughts, ideas, wonderings and concerns about scientific things that are changing in the world.
