Green Hat Challenge

The challenge was based on the three little pigs. Teams had to create a house made of straws, a house made of sticks and a house made of blocks. The big bad wolf then tried to blow down the house and they were so well built that he couldn't!! Well done teams :-)

How can we help?

Dilyn started a good conversation about how we can help our Kaiapoi Community. Lots of Studio 6 had some great ideas, some of which we are already doing. Thanks for caring Dilyn :-)

Wearable Arts!

Later in the term we will be working on some wearable arts outfits to enter into the school show. As a prelude to this, our buddies came down this afternoon and we had a challenge.... create an outfit using only newspaper and sellotape. Check out the awesome creations! Well done Studio 6 and 18 :-) Fab teamwork!
















And the winners are....

Fun Fractions!

We have been learning about fractions this week. We cut up apples as a practical way to find out about 1/2 and 1/4. 
It's easy to bring this maths language into your everyday lives at home - e.g.. when cutting cake/pizza/fruit etc :-)
