We Care
Most of you know that Wairakei School have launched a new 'vision' which has 5 aspects of being an Absolutely Brilliant Wairakei Learner. One of these aspects is "we care". A wee while ago Room 10 got together with their buddy classroom (Room 6) and created this video depicting the many ways we care. Enjoy!
Maths Games
On Wednesday afternoon we decided to spend some time playing maths games. This was a good idea because some of us didn't know how to play all of our games. We got into pairs and rotated around each game. What a lot of fun!

New chairs in the library!
When we visited the library on Friday we discovered the new chairs! We think they are pretty snazzy!

We remember...
Today was the anniversary of last years big earthquakes on February 22nd.
Like a lot of other Cantabrians we decorated our orange cones with flowers.
As a class we talked about the anniversary and swapped stories about where we were at the time of the earthquakes. Some children remembered being on the monkey bars, on the flying fox, and others remember still being in the lunch area eating their lunch.
We talked about how scary it was, our feelings, and we agreed that we felt safe at school because there are people around who can help us if it happens again.
At lunch time some of the children joined me at 12.51pm under the big Oak Tree to observe the 2 minute silence, a wee chat and some reassurance.
Kia Kaha, Room 10!
