Our Cross Country Stories

Yesterday was the cross country race. I was in front of the five year old girls for quite a while. But Carly won in the five year old girls race. My Mum and Dad clapped and cheered. It was AMAZING! Dad thought I was a little rocket.

I went to the Cross Country and I was running. It was at the front field. I came in front of Sam. I was tired.

At the Cross Country when we started there were lots of people in front of me. Then I passed a lot of people. Then at the finish line I came fourth. I felt very happy.

Renwick 2 did the Cross Country. I came seventh. At the start I went very fast and I was third but then I started to slow down. I was very happy!!! Mummy was there until I ran.

Trade-a-Thing Day


We have been learning about imports and exports and how New Zealand trades with other countries. We brought 2 or 3 small things to school to trade with other children in our syndicate. First we had a good look at all the things the other children had brought. Then we started trading. It was fun. Some children finished quickly and others traded their things more than once. We loved the toys we got.

Our Choir Concert

On Tuesday night, our big choir did a concert. Before the concert, the choir kids got hot chocolate and hot chips. It was awesome. Aria was singing Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star all by herself. She looked cute.
