Crazy Christmas Dress Up !

Aloha Blog buddies, last Friday we had to bring a gold coin to help raise money for Christmas hampers by dressing up. Some children wanted face paint so some kids in my class did face paint on others like Christmas Trees, Candy canes and Reindeer faces. I was one on the face painters ! 
Here are some photos of the day :

I really liked help raise money for hampers because we were helping people over the Christmas season, I loved dressing up and seeing everyone with there creative costumes. My most favourite part was doing the face paint. However I did not like making mistakes with the face paint and having to go swimming and my face paint coming off. I hope you liked my blog post about Christmas dress up day, Please feel free to leave a positive, thoughtful and helpful comment. Stick around for the summer learning journey.

Jumping Gymnasts !

Welcome back blog buddies, 

This term we have been working on our inner Gymnasts. We went to Tri Star which is our local Gymnasium, it's even home to Olympians! Our classes all walked down on Wednesday which was our first session down there and the next week it was Monday. We had other sessions in our school hall With Coach Mo and Coach Mesha.

Each time we learn new skills and challenged ourselves. The coaches bring in new equipment and even more fun each week. 

Here are some Cool Photos :

We did rotations with the different coaches, I liked jumping on the spring board doing flips into the foam pit and bouncing on the trampoline. Some things that I found difficult were swinging upside down and balancing on the beam. Next time I would try harder to work on my balance. I would recommend Tri star Gymnastics because you have a chance to learn new skills and go out of your comfort zone.

Pacifica Peter Pan Thinking Hat Reflection !

Aloha Blog Buddies, Last week we did our school production 'Pacifica Peter Pan'

In our production I was Wendy Darling. We did a reflection using De Bono Thinking Hats. One of  the thinking hats are White Which resembles facts and Red that resembles feelings. Here is my slideshow With my thinking hats:

My favourite thinking hat is the yellow hat because it a very happy hat, The hardest hats to do in my opinion are the Green and blue hats because we have to write what we could have improved and the blue hat is what we could have improved.
Overall I loved Production, It has Definitely been a highlight of my year.
