Woodend Camp

On the 2nd-4th of may year 4 and 5 went to woodend camp. First we went on a 5km  walk on the pines beach it was fun most of the time. After we got to the end we went to the park we ate and played it was fun. Then we walk to the camp. Later on we talked about the rules for camp then we got to go to our bunk rooms and set up. It was fantastic. Group A got to do the flying fox and Group B got to do orienteering then we changed. Caitlin Horne thought the flying fox was cool! Then we went inside and played and ate yummy!!

Christchurch Earthquake

Over the last three weeks we have had four children come from schools in the east of Christchurch into our classroom. Their schools were closed because the 6.3 earthquake damaged their classrooms and playgrounds. Their houses were damaged too. Many of them had no water, sewage or electricity.
