Lily's leaving party

Room 7 was very sad to say goodbye to Lily. She is heading over to Abu Dharbi with her family as her dad has a new job. We had a good bye party, everyone bought in delicious food to share and Lily's mum Sally made her famous cupcakes for us all. Yummy!!!

Our Visit to the Council worm farm!

Room 7 was extremely lucky to be able to further their learning about worms by visiting the Christchurch City Council Eco Depot. We got to make our own worm farms to take home.

Firstly though, we found out the difference between earthworms and compost worms. We went digging for earthworms.

Duathlon

Wow what a fabulous morning we had biking and running at our junior school duathlon. Room 7 children showed lots of DETERMINATION when they participated in this awesome event. Everyone was very proud of them!

A big congratulations to Ethan who was placed 3rd in the year 1 boys. A huge well done to Shelby who placed 2nd in the year 1 girls team.

Remembering February 22nd 2011

Windsor School displayed some cone art outside our front gate to remember those lives lost and their families in the February earthquake.

Room 7 placed some flowers into cones and then we followed this up with 1 minute silence with the Kahu team.

Searching for worms!

Do worms have bones? What's inside them?

We wanted to know more about worms and what they look like really close up! So we became explorers and went looking in the school garden for tiger earthworms! Here are some pictures of us investigating.
