Term 4 - Week 8 CAMP!!!!!

 The Year 3 Students had our school camp.
We played mini-golf, completed a fitness circuit beside the beach, 
stayed the night in the Muritai Centre, and had a fun day out at Rabbit Island.
Thanks SOOOOO much to all our AWESOME parent helpers, 
you were amazing!

Term 4 - Week 8


We looked at Siapo designs and tried a few of our own.


Term 4 - Week 7

 Our Tahunanui Lanscape Art.
We made these using crepe paper and LOTS of PVA glue...a very messy art session!




Term 4 - Week 6

We finished our beach-inspired art work and added the slogan:
No plants - No dunes
No dunes - No beach!
Good-Bye Mr Wells...thanks for everything, we'll miss you!

Term 4 - Week 5




We used Venn Diagrams to look at the different things that 
influence (affect or cause) changes to Tahunanui Beach.
We worked in groups to sort them into those caused by nature, those caused by people, and those that could be caused by both.
We had to justify (give a reason) for why we chose to 
place them where we did.
Finally we had to present our diagrams to the class.

The class finished making their fantastic clocks!

Term 4 - Week 2

 We started making our own wooden clocks!
Our student teacher, Mr Wells, brought in wooden clock faces and we had to work together to measure where the numbers would go.  First we used pencil and then went over the pencil with vivid.
Next we will paint them and add the hands.
