MACHINES ALIVE!

Today we got to choose which activity we wanted to do.  

Those kids that stayed in the Rainbow Room, did an activity called Machines Alive!

We listened to some music and pretended to be robots.  We had to do some actions.

Then Mrs Lunn gave us some pictures of toys.  We chose which picture we wanted to do and we made up some actions for how we thought it would move.

Baeley, Bailey and Zia were a rocking horse

Cameron, Kalas, Dylan and Saul were a racing car

Sam, Jack, Tyler and Issac were a train

Jayden, George, Riley and Alex were a toy boat

Ethan, Leah and Naomi were a rocking horse

To be successful, we had to think creatively.  We talked about our ideas and we gave them a go and changed them if we needed to.

We did it!

Well done guys!

DAWSON'S WICKED WEDNESDAY!

Yesterday afternoon, Dawson chose to go home with Saul's little brother Guy.  

They had a the coolest afternoon ever!  Here are some photos showing what Dawson, Guy and Saul got up to...

The three boys drove to Foxton Beach.  Good job Dawson for wearing your seat-belt!

They enjoyed fish and chips on the beach for tea.

Aw... so cute!

Dawson got to meet Saul and Guy's new puppy!

Dawson and the boys finished off the busy day with a few stories in bed.

Thanks for taking such great care of Dawson, Guy and Saul. 

 He is so lucky to have you both as friends.
