Gardening at HNS

Today, our gardener Terry came to visit Room 1 & Room 2 to talk to us about the compost bins we have at HNS.

He talked to us about how composting works and why we should compost. We already have been recycling paper & food scraps in our classes and we now have even more reason to do this.

Here is some of the work that the class did today:

Hosting Kidsedchatnz

This week Room 1 hosted Kidsedchatnz. We had to come up with the questions for the chat session and Mr Walker had to moderate the lesson. Our students were joined by children from around the country to talk all about culture. We also had a student from each of room 4 & 7 with us to join in.

The questions we used were:

The room 1 kids did a great job and helped choose the tweets of the week and pointed out when Mr Walker needed to send the next question.

Thanks to Sara, Carys, Renitta, Jordan, Francis, Angus and Daijahn for taking part in Room 1.

Tomorrow I (Mr Walker) have to send Follow, the kidsedchatnz mascot, onto his next holiday destination. He is heading off to Broadlands School but first we let him and Action Man have some fun times together and got some photos of Follow having fun At our school.
