Egg-cellent eggs by Room 2.

Can you recognise any of the possible artists?

Hugh made a ferris wheel using kinex, it even spins round.

Hugh has been doing a bit of Art

He drew with a sharp pencil on craft foam. Then he put ink on his dinosaur and pressed it on a piece of paper

Hugh's Family Game.

To play my game each player needs a catapult and 3 amo blocks. Shoot your amo using the catapult on to the board. See how many points you get

This looks good enough to eat.

Yoon has made this delicious looking dinner with flour and food colouring. I love the burger.

Yoon's been busy

There are so many lovely autumn leaves around at the moment.  Yoon has created this very cool person as a response to the 'Nature Art' activity.  Great job, Yoon.

Class of 2020

What a great bunch of children.

Rod Dixon

<How lucky was Hope School having an Olympic Champion visiting? Rod Dixon won a bronze medal for New Zealand in Munich at the 1972 Olympic Games.  One of his greatest achievements was winning the New York Marathon, in the last mile, in 1983.  His motto is Finishing is Winning ... Winning is Finishing.  We are applying this to our cross country training - maybe Room 2 has a future Olympic Champion.

2D shapes with Marshmallows

Room 2 have been looking at 2D and 3D shapes. They were lucky enough to get to make the shapes using toothpicks and marshmallows. They even got to sneak a few marshmallows!

Making poi

We were very lucky to have Whaea Sue come into Room 4 and teach us how to make poi. Mrs Johnstone is teaching us some poi moves to go with some Maori waiata.
