Keira's Nana

Here is my Nana visiting me at school.  She brought me cheesecake and pudding for morning tea.

Origami By B6

A beautiful Japanese Samurai hat made from black paper looks really smart.

Future Engineers.

Piripi, Ashlee, Nola, and Keira made this very tall tower out of rods. Aren't they clever?

Maths with Style

Today we started learning about turns.  It's a maths topic that is part of geometry.  We learned to turn our bodies to 90, 180, and 360 degrees.
We watched some skiing and skateboarding clips of people doing turns.  Amazing!
180 on a bike to see how to do a 180 (half turn) on a bike.

American Teachers


On Friday B6 had two lovely visitors.  Sheryl and Kelly are student teachers from America, and they are visiting Glenholme School because they heard how good New Zealand schools are.  They come from very different parts of U.S.A., and have different accents to each other.  Kelly comes from Colorado near the Rocky Mountains, where they have deep, deep snow in winter.  Sheryl comes from Texas, in the south, where it is 40 degrees in summer.  They helped us with our maths, and our sewing.  They showed us on the globe, where their home-towns are.
