    We were exhausted after our race yesterday. We had so much fun cheering on the other runners. We found going up the hills hard. What was the hardest part of the course for you?

    Liz won her race and she thought the second hill was the hardest. She walked fast up it.
    Georgia who came second in her race thought going through the carpark was hard because you have to pass through the cars carefully.
    James thought the footpath by Dawson Street was the hardest.
    Lacey thought the 2 laps around Putikitiki and then the hill were hard because she was tired.
    Robert found the hill down to Putikitiki tricky because the stones were slippery.
    Phillip thought it was hard when everyone was pushing.
    We hope you all had fun doing the Cross Country.

    We were so surprised to see such a long comment. Tahlia can remember that everyone was pushing her at the start line and Lachlan found it hard when he was strolling up the hill and people were pushing then too.

    We had to run two big laps around the school. We were sweaty and tired after that.

Class Treaty

We read the book The Tree House Treaty by Wiremu Grace.   The children in the story built a tree hut in a big old Pohutakawa tree.  They made a treaty to agree how they could all use their tree hut fairly. We created our own class treaty to symbolize how our class is a friendly and supportive learning environment.

Swimming

Everyday we have swimming. We have people who are learning to get their faces wet by playing ring-a-rosie. Some of us are learning to kick so the water bubbles. And some of us are learning to do freestyle without splashing the water by cupping our hands. On Fridays we get to practice our swimming by having free time. It is fun! Today we made a whirlpool. We made it go fast and it started dragging us. Then we went the other way. It was hard because the water was pushing us back. When we finished the water was pushing us along.
