Warriors Visit

 This afternoon, Ryan Hoffman and John Palaui from the Warriors team came to our school for a special assembly. At the start of the assembly Alice from DTR, Jorja, Ryan and John had a self introduction. For Ryan and John's self introduction, they had to say their name, position they play in the Warriors and their favourite ice cream flavour. We then started our assembly by spinning a wheel with 4 categories we would do during the assembly. The whole school was divided into 2 teams; Ryan's team and John's team. We each had to choose a chant. For Ryan's team our chant was 'Hofy', and John's teams chant was 'JP'. Our first category was Trivia. For Trivia, we had to shout our team's chant and see who would be the loudest to answer each question. Our second category was Sleep. Like the previous round, we had to shout the loudest for our team to get a point. We had volunteers go up and collect prizes from Ryan and John. Our 3rd round was Hydration. We had students go up and read facts, then sit back down with prizes. Our last round was Belongings. We had to scream our team's chant to get to read and collect prizes from Ryan and John. To finish off our special assembly we took a photo with the whole school including Ryan Hoffman and John Palavi. Our school definitely enjoyed having 2 rugby players from the Warriors visiting our school.

T3 W4 Kiwisport


This week for Kiwisport, we focused on jumping. We learnt what we need to do when we jump with two feet. We needed to bent our knees when we land. First we had to warm up, so we played Octopus. Mr Ogilvie played with us, which made it even more challenging. Then we played our last game called Rock Paper Scissors. We were divided into 2 teams. There were spots spread out on the semi circle line. We had to win a game of Rock Paper Scissors to jump to another spot. Our goal was to jump to the other side's team. We enjoyed having Andie teaching us how to jump and having Mr Ogilvie play with us.

T3 W4 Kiwi Can

This week for Kiwi Can we have been learning about Problem Solving. First we played an energiser where Mr M had to show a number of fingers, and whoever got the correct number first wins. The year 6s were divided into 2 groups, then played against each other. We had lots of fun playing our energiser.  Then we did our first activity where we had to think of a problem that has happened. Then we did our last activity where we had to have groups of people doing a play about a problem that has happened then try to solve it.
