Life Guard learning



The super lifeguard people, Sam and Mason came to Kaiwaka School and taught us about staying safe at the beach. I learnt that you don't just go down to the beach by
yourself and take a older child, you take a adult. By Portia.

The life saving lifeguards from Bethals Beach came to our school to teach Room 5 how to be safe in the water. Jade had to save Mason. Help, help and his life was saved. By Blossom.

Mine and Murphy's Mice




My and Murphy's mice are cool. We have to play with them before they get mad and I am the only one that plays with my mouse. That is why, this morning the other mice were tring to eat mine. By Rip.

Grandparents Day







We had an amazing day on Friday with 'Grandparents Day'. We had the most grandparents ever, I think. The hall was full! The children loved presenting their poems to their grandparents and had put lots of thought into what they said. It was a fun day for all.

Jessika's Kittens


On Friday Jessika brought her kittens to school to show us. They were very cute and one kept running away under the tables. He was a real explorer.

Speeches






We have just finished our speech competition for the year. All the children did really well and came up with some wonderful ideas this year. I was pleased with all the speeches and very proud of the children who got into the finials and won.

Daffodil Day





We had lots of fun on Daffodil Day. Most people dressed up in yellow and we raised lots of money for cancer. The art work was amazing. The children put in a lot of time, showing perseverance to finish their piece of work.
