Rainbow Mufti Day

On Friday 18^th March TBCS had a RAINBOW mufti day with all the colours of the RAINBOW, minus yellow, and adding pink.  I dressed in purple.

After lunch we went outside and made a RAINBOW, ironically on the ground. 

It was lots of fun. Yay!  Go rainbows!

On Friday 18^th March TBCS had a RAINBOW themed mufti day.  We all dressed in a single RAINBOW colour.

After lunch everyone went outside and stood in a RAINBOW shape according to our colour and we took photos.

All the money raised today was for our sponsored World Vision child, Helen.  We raised $102!

Buddies!

Yesterday Room 4 and Room 2 did some buddy reading in the library.  We had loads of fun together and Mrs Rolls loved watching us sharing books with our buddies. 
Here is what we thought:
“The funny little thing was that Abby was partnered with Abby.”  Abby
“My little buddy was cute and cuddly.  We read 5 books!  She was very respectful.”  Shanara
“I enjoyed listening to my little buddy, Mia, read.”  Tangiwai
“Me and my buddy found out that all pigs are beautiful.” Karene
“I enjoyed reading with little Caleb because he actually listened and he liked The Incredibles too.”  Jayden
“It was hard to read when Jack kept giggling at the funny sea animals that kept eating each other.  I think he really enjoyed the book!” Ethan

Who is having more fun?

Staring Competition!

Who is MONITORing the kids?

Can you get a tan while reading?

An ‘awwww’ moment!

What We Did at Breaktime!

This is how God must have felt creating the world!

Abel Tasman Walk

Abel Tasman Walk

On Friday the 11th March we (TBCS) went on our first EOTC trip of the year (EOTC stands for Education Outside the Class room).  We walked the Abel Tasman.
Room 4 went all the way to Apple Tree Bay. I was the last to get to the bay, but it’s fun to be last…then again it’s not fun to be last because I didn’t get much time in the bay!
After a while we walked back past the waterfalls, over the bridges, through the amazing bush all the way back to Tinline Bay.  It was wonderful.
My favourite thing was the waterfalls. They were all so different.  In some of them, the water fell into little pools then the pools would overflow and the water would go into the next pool and so on and so forth.  Then there is the normal waterfall when the water goes over a cliff, but my favourite one is the one where the water skims over the rock then it fills a pool but it starts with a normal waterfall.  Do you see why I liked the waterfall so much, because it had all three waterfalls in one?
All in all it was a great day even though my feet/ legs hurt the day after and when I got home I had a big sleep. I loved it and I think I will always love and treasure the memory forever and always.

More Awesome Things - Rain

You know when you step out of a car and its been pouring, then you smell the crisp fresh smell of rain. It's not like when its sunny, it is unique.  There’s a sound of little feet all around you. The sky may be dark and gloomy but you feel bright and awake. The smell, the sound, the feeling, it’s all...

Awesome Things - Throwing Water Into the Air

You know when you throw a cup of water in the air?  It's so awesome!   It goes up, then it thins, then finally...CRACK!  It splashes everywhere and you get soaked, even though your mother said not to get wet.   Oh well, who cares? I'ts just too fun to resist. You do it again and again.

Swimming Fun

Last Friday Room 3 and 4 went survival swimming in pyjamas and clothes at St Peter Chanel.  It was fun.  We had a ball. 

We discovered that it was extremely difficult to swim in heavy clothes.

Here are some photos to show you what we did:
