Wacky Hair and Sock Day

On Friday 22nd May Welcome Bay School held a Wacky Hair and Sock day to raise money for Te Puke High School. Te Puke High School had lost several classrooms and lots of work and equipment in the school holidays to a big fire. We know how hard it is to lose classrooms in a fire and how long it takes to recover so we wanted to help!

Children brought along a gold coin and had the chance to wear wacky hair and socks. There were mohawks, plaits, pony tails and all sorts of colours, there was even a hair washing line! Socks were multi-coloured and stripy, some even had glitter and pom-poms.

Room 3 Assembly

On May 8th, Room 3 shared a slide show we had created in Kidpix. It is one of our favourite stories "The Very Hungry Caterpillar" by Eric Carle. Our copy of this book is very small so we decided to make our own one for the class library. We hope you like our beautiful pictures.

Junior Trip to the Art Gallery, Library and the Redoubt/Rose Gardens.

On Thursday 2^nd April, Rooms 2, 3 and 7 went into Tauranga to explore their environment.

The classes rotated around the art gallery, the library and a walk up to the rose gardens/redoubt area.

Some children in Room 3 wrote:

We went to the art gallery and we made our own art and my border had hearts around it. By Madison.

The redoubt was pretty. I liked all the roses because they smell sweet. By Abby.

My Mum went to the art gallery and I did some pictures with old tissue paper. By Cheynes.

The library was fun. The pop up books could not be taken out and there was a tv book when you close and open the book it looks like it was moving. By Michael.
