This week, we been reading a ghost story.  It is called "Number One".  We like it because it has cool patterns on the illustrations. That's a fancy word for the pictures!  The pictures are just black, grey and white.  You will have to come into our room to look at our Number One pictures.  We drew them with black pens (vivids) and then we painted them with black dye because it is night time.  Kara told us that this was the background.

We have also been practising our running.
This is cross country running.   We have been running up hills and down hills, up steps and down steps, round and round things, in and out and behind things. 
We have been practising because next week, we are having a real cross country.  It is on the back field on Tuesday afternoon, if you would like to come and cheer us on!
We have been learning about being RESILIENT when we are running - you have keep trying, keep running and if you get tired, just do fast walking.  Don't give up, don't stop!

As a special fun treat, on Friday, we went to Weka Park with our buddy class.  We had lunch there and then we played.  We went on the playground and some people played soccer.  Loads of people joined in the soccer game.  We thought that later on, we could go back and have a special lunch, like maybe fish and chips!  MMMMMMMM!!!!!!!
