Big Week

Last week we had some exciting visitors to school.  We had Takoda's dad "Joe the Builder" come and speak to us about being a builder. After showing us many tools he made a table in front of our whole junior assembly.  We now have many students wanting to be builders when they leave school.

We also had a visit from the local fire brigade who reinforced some of our safety messages around getting out of a building if it is on fire.  We know that in the event of a fire we need to get down and get out. Once outside we need to meet at the place we have arranged with our family in the event of a fire or emergency.  The letter box is usually a good idea.

Here are some photo's of the fire brigade visit.

We have also started cricket skills.  Each Friday we will learn basic cricketing skills with coaching from Nelson representative cricket players.  Here are some photos from our first session. Look out the Black Caps.

Don't forget this week we are walking up to the Stoke Library on Thursday. Please have the students Library cards to school by Wednesday ready for our exciting outing.
