Our inquiry this term has been about 'How People Change'.  We have been looking at what we need to keep our bodies going and to live for a long time.  Last week Dr Jessica Crampton (Miss Crampton's sister) spoke to us about body systems, in particular the digestive system.  We got to ask her some of our wonderings...
Earlier in the term, we had Josh (Miss Suszko's brother) talk to us about fitness and food for fuel.  We even got to do some of Josh's exercises!!!

Planting Day at Glenfalloch

We had a great adventure last Friday at Glenfalloch Gardens with Room 2 when we helped out with planting trees.  Thanks to Marty Steel for the great photos!

Term 3

We have an exciting and busy term planned! Thanks to Ms Dixon for all her great work with Room 6 last term.  Every Friday we have Dance with Victoria! We love to dance, it is one of our favourite things to do!! Last week we visited Harold from the Life Education bus.  We found out that our body needs exercise, kai, water (H2O). sleep, oxygen (O2), rest/sleep to keep going....

Otago Museum Visit!

Last week Room 6 went to the Otago Museum to learn about the Rock Solid programme.  Kimberley the awesome teacher at the Museum talked to us about Tectonic Plates and the Continents! Then we got to see her demonstrate an experiment showing what happens when a volcano erupts! Next Kimberley got us to examine some objects and decide if they were fossils or not! Finally we did some exploring and searching for other fossils in the gallery area!
