Medal Making

We have been making our own Olympic Medals using salt dough.  We had to design our medal on paper first and then made it using the dough.




Cricket Coaching

On Wednesday we had two cricket coaches come to the school.  We played some games that involved fielding and hitting balls.





Peace Week

This week was Peace Week.  As part of this Room 2 made a special 'peace tree.'  We painted the outline of the tree.  The leaves were made by tracing around our hands.  We then wrote a message or drew a relevant picture on our leaf and painted it.












Mathletics Class of the Week for New Zealand

Room 2 have won a special award for being the New Zealand Mathletics class of the week.  This means that Room 2 had the most points for any class in the whole country!  Well done to all the Room 2 children for working hard to achieve this and thanks to the parents who have been supporting their children on Mathletics at home.







Olympic Torches

This week we have learnt about how the Olympic Flame is carried by a relay to the Olympic Stadium.  We watched a video from the 1992 Barcelona opening ceremony when an archer used a flaming arrow to light the Olympic cauldron.  We then made our own Olympic torches and decorated them.
