Farewell Room 1 2016

To all Room 1 students, parents and caregivers, I wish you all a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Room 1 have had a fabulous year of learning, laughter and fun.
We have built strong relationships with each other, showing kindness, respect and most importantly empathy. Here we are with our buddy class Room 11.

Pinatas

As part of our Celebrations Inquiry, Room 1 have learned about Piñata’s. Here is Cathy's information:

The Piñata’s History
The piñata idea originated from China. In China people would break tiny clay pots with seeds in it to welcome spring.  It is also played in Greenland to welcome summer. Mexico and America play the game on birthdays. By Cathy

We made our own piñata from boxes and paper mache. We worked hard with our creative brains and come up with amazing designs.

White Christmas

This morning Room 1 & 11 made White Christmas slice. After it had time to set, we all had a few pieces to eat and it was delicious! We got to take some home to share with our whanau. We have a copy of the recipe, so we can make some at home!
