On Friday we had a visit from the Halcombe Fire Brigade. The Student Council and Tyler presented them with the money we fundraised on 'Red Day' for the Blood and Leukaemia foundation.

 

Every day we have a ‘Thinking Challenge’. Today we used the Commonality Key (looking at two very different things and thinking about what they could have in common).

We thought about what Scissors and Books have in common:

·      You can buy them

·      Both can cut you (paper cut)

·      Straight

·      Strong

·      Can be similar colours

·      Both are in our classroom

·      Both open

·      Have pointy parts

RED DAY

We had heaps of fun dressing up for RED DAY! We raised $164 for the NZ Blood and Leukaemia Foundation. Thanks to the Student Council who organised another fun day for us!

 

We had a fantastic time at the ‘Halcombe School Mini Commonwealth Games’! It was lots of fun doing all the different activities! A huge thank you to the student council and Miss Simpson for organising such a great event! Well done to our Gold, Silver and Bronze medal winners!
