What's happening in Room 2?

Our class star
Congratulations to Savana-Rae for being selected by Mr Nelson and Mrs Hodgkinson as the Room 2 certificate winner for the last two weeks. Savana-Rae has had a fantastic year so far.

Staff v students non-stop cricket match
This took place on Friday at lunchtime. The match was a thriller, with the staff just edging out the students 55-53. Both Mr Nelson and Mrs H enjoyed being part of the winning team.

The students now want revenge, and are looking forward to the next staff-student challenge.

7 a side tournament
This is taking place on Wednesday, with several of our Room 2 students taking part. Fingers crossed that the weather will stay fine.

Grasshoppers tennis
Our last session for Grasshoppers Tennis will be on Wednesday. However, the good news is that the school has purchased the equipment and all of the teachers are having a training session on Monday afternoon so that they are skilled up in how to run Grasshopper programmes.

Te Reo Maori
Keep checking the Let's Learn Te Reo Maori blog for new lessons. This week we are looking at more responses to the question 'Kei te pehea koe?'

French
The post for last week's blog on countries will remain as the most up to date post for the coming week as we have only just finished our Family Unit.

Homework
The homework for Week 4 is now up on the Internet. To access it, click the link on the top right hand side of this page.

Weekend sport
It's great seeing so many Room 2 students involved in weekend sport. I (Mr Nelson) really enjoyed watching Lakeview students playing netball on Saturday morning. Mrs H also enjoyed being at the netball courts, where she was helping out with the Senior B Team.

  8. Mr nelson the non stop cricket was preety cool but you cheated because you told the students to run around the cones but you didn't tell the teachers to run around the cones and you didn't pull them up for that.

    Can't wait till 7 aside hope the teachers come to support our team we are going to watch us smash the other schools

    Weekend sport we absolutely smashed featherston\greytown but the reff was pretty NOT fair we wern't aloud to do anything right can't wait to smash danny's team again 49-0 thats right we are undefeeted under 13 redstar.

  13. Hi Mr Nelson. Did you have fun being in the winning team for the non-stop cricket team it sucked that I was away for the game because I was meant to be playing in it, the score was pretty close.

    The new unit we started on swounds fun but the words are so alike so I am getting confused with the words.

    I can't wait until Wednesday because thats the date the Seven Aside games will be held. I am in the Seven Aside soccer team, we will be facing St Matthews. The game will be held at St Matthews.

    I have really enjoyed learning new skills with Alex during Grasshopper Tennis.

    Congradulations Savana-rae for getting the class award last week.

  14. Well done Savana for getting the award, the non- stop cricket match who got 55 and who got 53?

    Tennis is fun but it's hard to get the ball in the back square, but i enjoyed it and Alex was a good tennis teacher.

    Saying the countries in french are hard but Englad is the one that i didn't know until i'd done all the other countries first.

  20. It is so sad that we no longer play or do grasshopper tennis it is so sad THANKYOU very much Alex I enjoyed having you instrouction me and teaching me too play tennis and giving me alot of helpful tips on how too play tennis

    The cricket match was very amusing or very intresting. That was the first and most likely the last time I would see the teachers run. As the teacher and students formed a croud of fans adoring the STUDENTS there was mayhem behind the croud Ashton,Conor and I got tackled and pushed around. congradulations TEACHERS for winning I say that through my grunted teeth.( mrs h runs funny so does mrs stuart)

    Congradulations Savana for getting the award:)

    On Saturday our netball team had our second game of netball and we were up against st.matts , it was like a really good game and a very close game but unfortunatley we lost by two piont , but like i was getting like real angry because like half the team was like real tired and yeah , but tomorrow we will hopefully beat them !!!!!!!!!
