Circuit Class

For our Inquiry this term we are developing a Circuits Programme for the Otakaro Team to participate in. We are at the 'Immersion' stage, where we need to find out what exactly circuits involves.

So today Miss O'Neill took us to Jellie Park where we met Shelley. She is a gym instructor, and she took us for a class of circuits. We got to do various exercises which specially work just our legs, our hearts and our tummies (abdomen)...it was hard work! Some of us even started to sweat!

We thought the best part was being able to use some special gym equipment.

Thanks, Jellie Park for letting us come and visit.

Welcome to Miss Pricolo


A big welcome to our student teacher, Sam Pricolo. We hope you love teaching Room 10...we are certain you will!

A wee while ago our school received a parcel from another Wairakei School! I know! There is another Wairakei School in the North Island. They heard about our big earthquake, and know we are having lots of aftershocks, and wanted to let us know that they care. Wow! Thanks Wairakei North...it is great to know we are being thought of. Here is a picture of some of Room 10 reading some books made by the wonderful children of Wairakei North School...thanks!
