Girl's Soccer Final

Waimea girl's soccer team, starring Alicia, Lucy, Kirsten and Anna who was absent.
Well done to the Waimea Girl's Soccer team for their amazing effort in the final game of the season. We have four star players from Room 2 in this team, Alicia, Anna, Lucy and Kirsten. They played with such determination, and I was very proud of them! Waimea drew with Nelson Intermediate 0-0, so the game went to extra time, but after no goals were score it was down to penalty shots. The first 5 players shot and it was tied at 1-1. The rest of the team had to shoot, after 10 players, Nelson finally went ahead by 1 to win the final. Casey, from Room 1 was awarded the player of the game for Waimea, for her fantastic passing. Well done girls, you had a fantastic season and ending by playing your best game! Well done to the Room 2 memebers, we are very proud of you, from Miss Bibby.

SNOW SNOW SNOW

Can you believe it actually snow today?
Room 2 noticed the small, white flakes floating down, and ran outside to get a better look.
Did it snow where you were? What did you think of the snow?

Grey clods above, feeling very cold!

Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!

We managed to see some of the white flakes before they melted, caught here nicely on Ben's head.

Trying something new.

Today Room 2 tried using google documents to share their ideas about the positive and negative aspects of puberty. They said they really enjoyed sharing their ideas this way, as they didn't feel embarassed, they could see others ideas as they worked. Cool idea, next week we will give it a go after school. Another great way to share and build on our thinking. See how it looked...
