Race Relations day at Owairaka School

We had an amazing day. Children dressed up in their cultural costumes and the the parade on the stage was awesome. We liked to taste the cultural food . There was a variety of food for us to choose. We like race relations day.

Our Buddy class is Room 21. We buddy read with this class every Tuesday, share our poems, sing songs, listen to a story and do Jump Jam. Here are some photos.

Look at our our hard working Maths problem solvers:

We read the word problem, look for clues , try to solve it ourselves, share it with our buddy and finally discuss with the group.

In the weekend my big brother had a birthday. We went on the rides and we got on the motorbike. We then went to the beach and got wet.  Jahmayne

When it is summer you feel hot and sweaty. Summer is like hot chocolate. You feel like eating ice- cream.     Ava 

Last night I had a barbecue with my family and friends. We lunched fireworks. We even launched fireworks with a cross. Even my dad's boss Kris came.  Luca

On Green day at Owairaka school we had a big assembly. We wore green clothes. On green day we look after the plants and water the plants so that it can grow.  Tiffany
