Last week we went to the Awakeri Hot Springs. We played learning games in the water. We had to get in the pool with our clothes on! We also sat on tyres and the parents tipped us out of them. Naughty parents!! We did silly dances on the edge of the pool and then fell in on purpose. We had an awesome day

We made clocks. First Miss Geerlings gave us plates and we traced around them onto cardboard. Then we cut the circles out. After that we coloured the circles in.

We have got swimming skills fish and we have been colouring in the activities that we can do in the swimming pool. We cut out blue and green pieces of magazines and glued them on the back of our fish . Then we covered it in glue and stuck small pieces of tin foil on top. This side will also have our swimming goal on it .

We've been learning why others are special. Here are some examples:

I feel good about myself when I help cook tea.
I am really good at playing with my cat.

I feel good about myself when I help wash dishes.
I am really good at skipping and making my bed.
I am a happy person.

To finish off a great term of learning to swim, our class as well as room 7 and 6 went to the Hot Pools for a deep water learning experience. We had a great team of parents to help with the activities and the children had to imagine being in all kinds of deep water situations !
