Term 4-Fantastic comments from friends

Wow! When we came back to school today
we found 29 comments waiting for us.

It was very exciting to read them all.  

A big thank you from all of us.

Did you watch the Rugby World Cup Final?

The Mighty All Blacks won!

Jump Jam

We enjoyed watching Room 3, Craigburn School,
and their dancing routines with Footsteps. 

Check out their blog if you haven't already seen
their 'Rock Around the Clock' moves! 

Room 16 wanted to share their 'Jump Jam' dancing for fitness.

Brett Fairweather has made this aerobic program for kids. 

As you can see, we love it
and have a great time, 

while we exercise!

Skype is a good way to make connections.
