Throwing underarm...

We learnt today how to throw a ball underarm.  It was quite tricky to catch it again!

Look at our pictures...

The Harvest Festival

I wonder, I wonder what Dugan is going to do with this pumpkin?

Dugan is getting the cutting tools ready...You have to be careful.  They are very sharp!

Dugan is showing us the seeds inside the pumpkin.

It felt really sticky...It felt good!

It felt like sticky chocolate...

Dugan is taking the seeds out so he can carve the pumpkin...

Look at our cherry tomatoes, someone in our class even brought in some yellow ones to share with our school whanau.

Mr Pumpkin...

These are the things we are going to use to make our veggie kebabs.

Chopping....

Cutting up the cheese...

Balloons at Marian School

We were so fortunate that Marian school invited us to share in their balloon experience...

Did you know the balloon is in the trailer?

Getting the balloon on the right angle ready to be filled up...

Wow, look what's happening...the balloon is nearly off...

Up, up and away.....

Thank you Marian school for sharing your balloon with us.  We loved it!  From Room 5
