Our week

This week has been another busy week with lots of things on: During our reading time we have been doing research about an animal of our choice. We have to collect a range of information about our animal to display on a poster.

On Wednesday Emily brought along the biggest apple we have ever seen. It grew on her families apple tree and weighed 716 grams. It would be great for making apple crumble.

Studio 1 started this week and we had lots of interesting presenations. We are really looking forward to next weeks presentations.

On Thursday a large number of children competed in the TSSA Swimming Sports and East Taieri retained the sheild AGAIN!!

Highlanders Come to East Taieri




Yesterday the Otago Highlanders came to our school. They trained and signed autographs while the whole school watched on. Some children received 'Golden Tickets' which will enable them to get into a Highlanders game free if accompanied by an adult. It was really exciting to have the Highlanders come to our school because we got to see them up close and watch them train. They were way bigger than we thought. We were very lucky.
