Rugby World Cup

This year New Zealand is hosting the Rugby World Cup. The Opening Ceremony took place last Friday at Eden Park, in Auckland. In our class we have been writing stories about the fireworks and the games. Some children have watched a few games and have written about the experiences.
Here are Priyanka and Jamie's stories on the Rugby World Cup.

Dinosaur Stories

Last week, we wrote about Dinosaurs. Elysia and Jamie wrote stories about a hungry dinosaur. This is the first time Elysia and Jamie have recorded their story. Listen to the stories to find out what the dinosaur wanted to eat.

Growing Pet

The children in A2 have a growing pet in their class. We started of by putting the egg in the water and we have been watching it as it grows. By the end of the day, the egg started cracking. Here is a video about our experience.


What do you think the egg will crack into?
