This term, Swimming has been a big focus for our Syndicate and Class. We have had 10 lessons on Water Safety at our local council pools: Cameron Pools, as well as learning some swimming skills. We are also lucky enough to have a school pool where we learn more swimming skills. Last Friday all the Middle School and Senior School went down to Cameron Pools for their swimming sports. Every student was entered into a freestyle and a backstroke race and then some were also in house relays. Finally 4 Year 6 girls and 4 Year 6 boys raced a relay against the Senior teachers.
In Writing we have been focusing on Recounts so we wrote about our experiences at the Cameron Pools. Here are few examples.
We are really enjoying Writing this year. We are doing Creative Writing at the moment so keep checking for new blogs with some of our new work.
We are an awesome class in Te Waka Ako, the senior syndicate of our school. Our new environment is an ILE we share with two other classes; Waitemata and Manukau. Respect is our core school Code. Respect of ourselves and others, of property and belongings, of the right to learn and the right to be safe. We want the knowledge and skills to adapt and change in an interconnected and global society.

Week Six Already!
WOW! Five weeks have past and we have not started using our class blog. We have been busy with so many things, but have not put blogging into our programme yet, so sadly it has lain dormant. So...in Week 7 we will have some reflections, statements and student work posted.
For now a few photos are in order. A picture tells a thousand words and all that!!
