Outstanding Gymnists

We learned all about shapes, routines and rolls in gymnastics.  Check out our style in these photo's.

Book Week Dress-Up Parade

What an amazing week last week!  Books to buy, stories read by other teachers, stories read by seniors and a dress-up parade.  The photos are here, better late than never!  A special mouse even visited us!

Amazing Science

Some of the children have been working really hard on their science challenges.  Here are some examples from "Pondering on Plants".  

Our Class Dojo

We have now made a Class Dojo which is much easier to post, view and comment on.  You will all receive account codes for children and for parents so that you can view at anytime.  This makes posting safer too because only the people with an account code can view.  Here is the link that will take you straight there (hopefully!).  We hope you will check it out and comment.

Strike Percussion

A wonderfully talented group of percussionists from the Wellington-based group 'Strike' visited Ilam School on Tuesday 24 May. 

It was loud! It was fast! It was FUN! 

Even Emily was up on stage performing on some Pacific Island drums. Here is a taster of the amazing performance.

PJ and Pizza Day

Coming to school in our pyjamas saves so much time!  We should do this all the time - we may never have to get dressed again!

Onesies are the fashion 'must have' in 2016!

Small Sticks Hockey

We have been learning some hockey skills.  We can now dribble the ball and stop it.  How clever!
