Trip to Devonport

Yesterday Room 23 and Team One went on a trip to Devonport. We travelled by bus to Auckland City, then we caught a ferry to Devonport.

When we arrived we had lunch at a nearby park near the beach, and then each class enjoyed playing some fun games and activities.

We all had an amazing time and we were so lucky that the weather was great. Thank you so much to the parents who were able to help us on our trip (Vinolia's mum and cousin, Rosalina's mum and John-Amour's Dad).

We hope you enjoy looking at some photos of our trip.

Tom's waka

Tom's waka has paddles on each side. Tom learnt that the sail on a waka helps to move the waka along the water when it is windy.

TJ's waka

TJ has drawn a great picture of a waka. Can you see the sail and the shelter for the people on his waka?

Vinolia and Dezarae singing ABC

Room 23 have been using the alphabet song (ABC) to help them with their reading and writing. We also like singing the song for fun. You can sing along with Vinolia and Dezarae too!

Rosalina and Waimaria singing Humpty Dumpty

Listen to Rosalina and Waimaria sing 'Humpty Dumpty'.



Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall
All the king's horses
And all the king's men
Couldn't put Humpty together again.

Dezarae Sings "1,2,3,4,5"

In this movie Dezarae sings a nursery rhyme called 1,2,3,4,5. The children in our class really enjoy singing. Sing along with her if you like, and please leave a comment.
