Shadows

On Friday Room 2 had lots of fun learning about shadows.

Term 2 Week 2 - Mother's Day

So proud of all of Room 2! 

Everyone worked super hard on Friday and did some fantastic colouring and writing 

for their awesome Mum /'Mother Figure'.

Here's a sneak peek of what is coming for all the amazing mums in Room 2 on Sunday. 

Enjoy your special day!

Term 2 Week 2: Sport Auckland - Dance

Room 2 started Dance with Caitlyn on Friday. As a class we explored different ways to move or travel and came up with lots of ideas like; skipping, hopping, crawling, walking backwards and sidestep, It was fun being the leader and choosing how the rest of the class moved behind us. Caitlyn also played some cool games with us - one of our favourite ones was 'the balancing game'. At the end, we played a game where we had to touch body parts with a partner or a small group. It was lots of fun. We are already looking forward to our next Dance session with Caitlyn.

Term 2 Week 2: Jelly Beans Music

Last Monday, Room 2 were super excited to attend their first Jelly Beans music lesson. Our teacher was Mrs White and she had a lovely assortment of musical instruments for us to experiment with. We enjoyed singing and moving to the beat, as well as playing along to a song about a broken car.

A big Glen Innes 'Thank you' to Skids, who helped to sponsor the programme throughout Term 2. 

We can't hardly wait for next Monday!

We had to oncentrate hard as a class.

But Jellybeans Music was so much fun!

Room 2 eats Mexican Food

We Love Nachos!

Room 2 made Nachos today. They learnt what ingredients went into making Nachos. Everyone loved the corn chips, cheese and beans. They later looked for Mexico on the world map.

Gymnastics

Room 2 loves the Gymnastics sessions provided by Sport Auckland every Friday. We enjoy using the equipment to help us exercise our bodies and are gaining in confidence every week.
Check out our cheeky smiles below!

It's a balancing act!

Story time!

This week, Room 2 were lucky enough to have some stories read to them by Room 10. We really enjoyed listening to the different stories. We hope that some of the children in Room 10 will come and read to us again very soon! Well done Benson, Dau, Piripi, Olivia and Edwina - it's not easy reading out loud to an audience, especially a wriggly Room 2!

. 

Benson read a story called The Gardeners Maze.

They loved Dau's story - It's my bread!

 The girls read longer stories which Room 2 really enjoyed!

Piripi reads a story to Room 2. 

Thank you Room 10! We loved you reading to us. Please come again soon!

Rippa Rugby

Room 2 really enjoyed learning some rippa rugby skills this week. We loved playing the team games. We had to run with the rugby ball, weave in and out of the cones and throw and catch. It was so much fun. Thanks you Mr du Toit for organising the coaches - we had a great introduction to Rippa Rugby!

First day back - Term 1 2019

Term 1, Day 1 2019 - Welcome back to Glen Innes School! As a special treat Mr Hendricks had arranged a bouncy castle for the first day back in 2019. Room 2 simply loved the castle - they could have kept jumping all day long! Waiting for our turn on the castle was the hardest thing.

Welcome back to Glen Innes School 2019

Here are the girls waiting for their turn ...

and the boys waiting for their turn.

Wow! Look how high Jasmine can jump!
