Jasmine's Poem

Joyful, happy, nice is who I am

Arts and crafts, read and draw is what I      do in my spare time 

Swimming is my favourite sport

My family means lots to me. I Love them so         much 

I'm easy to talk to, so come and say "hi"

Nice, caring and helpful is what I'm looking     for in a friend

Everything in my world is cRaZy and Fun!

Y6 Campers

Hi everyone - our Year 6 pupils left for camp this morning with big smiles on their faces. We are sure they will have the most AMAZING time! This week Mrs Dowden is lucky to have her own year 5 pupils, plus those from Room 6 and half of the Room 7 Year 5's. We are looking at Surf Safety this week, in preparation for our trip to Piha on Thursday.

Below are some of our name acrostic poems which we wrote in week one. Hope you enjoy reading them!
