The Amazing Race

We held this at Lake Rotoroa on Friday 12th April. Teams included students from each class. The aim of the activities was to help students get to know each other, build teamwork and co-operation skills. Thanks so much to the many family members who helped us out. We couldn't have done it without you!

Most teams started at the train

Caterpillar poetry

We've been playing with 5W poems based around experiences with the caterpillars.
The 5 Ws are Who? What? Where? When? Why?

Each line of the poem answers a question in that order.

Here are some.


The caterpillars
turn into cocoons
on a leaf
when the time feels right
because that's what they do.
By Devon Martin

The caterpillars
form into a cocoon
on a leaf that's strong
when they're fat and bloated
so they may be pretty when evolved.
By Ranui Purnell

Caterpillars
munching
on leaves
outside
because they are hungry.
By Zinzan Wilson-Ogg

Little caterpillar
hatching
on a swan plant
when the sun just rose
to live its life.
By Patricia Nikara

The caterpillars
were eating
on the plant
when they are big and fat
they will have eaten enough to become a chrysalis.
By Rhylee Moore

Two caterpillars
munching leaves
on a huge tree
all day long
so they can turn into pretty butterflies.
by Titan Simon

The caterpillars
eat leaves
on a leaf
when they feel like tea
because they're hungry.
By Amanda Dempsey.
