Cooking Hokey Pokey

In Room 7 Mina and Sivailoa were reading the book "Tas and the Hokey Pokey". They didn't know what hokey pokey was, so Mrs Marriott took them and some other students to make hokey pokey. They really enjoyed eating it!

Ricky, Eli, Sivailoa, Mina and Shalyn

They made the hokey pokey in the staffroom.

This is Tas and Josh (from the book) making their hokey pokey.

Hampstead B Netball Final

but there was lots of great play

Turbo Touch

We learnt about how to play Turbo Touch with Cat and Cody. We had lots of fun.

Science Alive

We had a great time at Science Alive last week. We had a show in the morning and learnt about light and how it travels. In the afternoon we did activities based on sound so we could discover all sorts of thins for ourselves.

Phoenix with the Kahaurangi Dancers

The boys enjoyed trying to copy the moves. They were disappointing with their sounds though!

Kahaurangi Dance Group

We had the Kahaurangi Dance Group come and share a variety of Pacific Island dances. They were really good. They had a variety of songs and costumes.

Japanese Visitors

 On Friday the 31 of July the College Japanese group came to school. We sang some songs to them and they did some to us.
Room 6 and Room 7 joined together with 5 of the students. They told us about Sumo Wrestlers. We got to play a game of sumo wrestling by making a paper wrestler and then tapping the box they stood on until one fell over or went out of the circle.

We really enjoyed having these students visiting. Before we knew it their time was up and it was time to clean up.

Cooking Time

At the end of Term 2 Mrs Marriott took Cody and the ESOL students to the hall where they iced biscuits. Everyone had a great time. The biscuits were pretty good too.

Hampstead School Cross Country on May 8th.

There was lots of waiting but we cheered
the runners on.

These runners all did 2 laps of the course.
Well done team.

Gemma did two laps. A great effort Gemma.

Dion came 4th in the 3 lap County possibility race.

Jessyca was the only girl from Room 7 to do the serious 3 lap race.
We were proud of your dedication to this Jessyca.
