Danielle learns tap dancing and she brought her tap shoes to school on Friday to show us her dance. She was fabulous! Have a look below. 

Athletics Time!! On your marks.....get set....Go!

It's nearly Athletics day time so Room 11 and Room 13 went out to have a go on the tracks. We practiced "On your marks" (feet together) "Get set" (leg back ready to run) and "Go" Run! We had lots of fun. Miss Ramsay and Mrs Burge were really impressed with the children who tripped and got back up to try again! 

Celebration Assembly

Wow! Sunnyhills had a Celebration Assembly to celebrate all our wonderful performers this year!! Have a look at some of our performers below. 

What makes Ice melt faster?

Today Room 11 did an ice experiment to see what caused ice to melt the fastest. We used hot water, vinegar, baking soda, sugar and salt. What do you think melted the fastest? The ice that Miss Ramsay poured hot water over melted the fastest and then the one with vinegar. The salt and the sugar stuck to the ice and melted it a little bit but it was a lot slower. The baking soda seemed to slow down the melting of the ice and it only melted a tiny bit. Have a look at the photos below or come and ask us about it - Room 11

Library Roadshow

Yesterday at Sunnyhills we had a visit from the people at Pakuranga Library. They told us all about what you can get out of the library using your library card. Did you know there are over 55 libraries in Auckland! Who knew you could get video games out too! Even some of their books have Virtual Reality! We can't wait to head to the library in the holidays to check out all the wonderful things to do.

Buddy Challenge - Tower building with Spaghetti and Marshmallows!

Dress up Fun!

ASB Getwise!

Room 11 just had a visit from Superhero Serena from ASB who came to talk to us about being wise with our money. We learnt about wants and needs. You should always speed towards your needs and wait for your wants! We also learnt about all the New Zealand coins and notes....we can even put them in order from smallest value to the biggest value! We  think we will be pretty good savers with our 3 jars - save, spend and share. Are you good at saving? 

Making fudge!!!!

Room 11 read a poem this week all about Fudge! Some children in Room 11 didn't know what fudge was!! So Miss Ramsay decided to make some fudge....But we couldn't have done it without help from our buddy class, Room 1 and Mrs Poole ...thanks for the help!
