This morning Chloe and her Dad Marty bought their puppy to school. Harry is a Bernese Mountain Dog. The children patted him and noticed how amazingly soft he was. He was very well behaved and even children who were a bit unsure about patting him had a go and loved feeling his soft fur. Harry is going to grow much bigger than he is now - let's hope he comes back and visits another day!

The Pūkeko Reading group were reading an article in a school journal titled "Our Rocks Rock". Mrs D had brought along a trilobite fossil for everyone to have a look at.

It is amazing to think  about how long ago these animals were alive on Earth. We had lots of questions.

Here is a video clip that might help answer some of your wonderings.

We have been enjoying finding out more about each other by sharing our "Me" bags in class and are looking forward to sharing more next week. 

It has been wonderful listening to the children in Kererū 24 share their 'me' bags today. This was a great opportunity for  the children to learn a little more about each other and find out who has similar likes and dislikes! Ka Pai tamariki
