Our Room 5 students,

We are enjoying getting to know all our new students in Room 5 and a big warm welcome to Hamilton East School.

Welcome to Room 5

A warm welcome to everyone...Here are a few pictures to show you our classroom and the things we do.

We are learning everybody's names in our class, we are also finding our way around the school.

Looking out for others

I love this photo, this is what we encourage our students to do, looking out for each other and being kind.

Planting Our Seeds

We need soil, water and sunshine for our seeds to grow...

Growing...

As part of our topic this term, we will be looking at 'Growing'...

We will be growing beans and learning about how things grow and what they need to survive.

We will also look at our own growing..., how our hair grows, our bodies grow....

Watch this space for pictures of what we get up to.

Survival...

As part of a collaborative week, Rooms 4,5 and 6 joined together and had a fun week of learning.  These photos were taken of the group that was looking at 'survival'.  

This group made a hut on Putikitiki and then made butter to put on their bread, followed by cooking a sausage on the cooker, then they had to make a hut inside Room 5 out of what they could find.  The students enjoyed eating their cooked sausage under their shelter. 

Making Huts on Putikitiki

We had an amazing time making huts out of what we could find on Putikitiki.  We pretended we were survivors and had to make a shelter for ourselves.  Everyone helped out!  It was really neat working as a team.

Working as a team was the best feeling ever...

Peek a boo!

We even decorated our hut with flowers and made it a hut for fairies.
