Athletics 2017

Yesterday the years 3,4,5,6,7 and 8 went to athletics at Lloyd Elsmore Park in Pakuranga. It was incredible. I was in the high jump and long jump. I didn't place but I tried my best and had lots of fun. There were a lot of people from our school came first, second and third. A big thank you to all the teachers that came down and supported us on the day.

Fire Station Summary

On Tuesday, LS1 and LS2 went down to the Panmure Fire Station. Our inquiry for this term is our community so we have been learning about the different places in our community. After the trip, we came back to school and wrote a summary about our experience. First of all, we got twenty words that we thought were important. Then we got six words from the first twenty words and used them to write a summary about firefighters.  

Fire Safety Message

As part of learning about the community for inquiry this term we have been writing fire safety messages to help out our community. First as a class we were discussing how we can help our community with fire problems. I wrote a message talking about smoke alarms and where you should put it. I have linked a video to show what could happen if you don't have a working smoke alarm. There a places that you shouldn't put smoke alarms. I learnt that when your smoke alarm makes a sound the first thing to do is go outside somewhere safe and make sure you don't go back inside your house. Remember to call 111 for the emergency service to come.
