Ketes

In Room 9 we have been making paper Ketes (Maori woven baskets). Inside them we have put goals for this year such as "Can Do"attitude, Respect and Personal Excellence. They have been put around the classroom. Room 8 have put seven Keys for Learning in the foyer.
Some people from ERO in Wellington have come to Clifton Terrace School this week.  
And we had a writing test today.

Well Hello Room 9
My name is Donna Hillier and I am Cinamin Collins Mum. I have checked out your room site afew times now and thought it would be nice to try to leave you a message. Using the computer for something like this is new to me but very exciting, how cool to be able to see what you guys are up to, especially when I don't have the opportunity to make it to some of the wonderful activities you get to partake in throughout the year. I can't wait to have the opportunity to see your Kete's they sound awesome!!! As for your insect study, I'm abit like your Teacher and will scream and run if I see a spider but their are some amazing insects in our environment that sometimes we forget to appreciate. I once saw the skin shell of a Dragon Fly it was Huge!!!! I was absolutely blown away by it. I had no idea they shed their skin, did you? Well, I think I saw in your weekly notices that you have a Cross Country coming up soon, good luck to you all, maybe you could post some pictures of that on your site.
