Ruru Christmas Decorations

After lunch today some Mums came into Ruru and helped us make some Ruru Christmas Decorations.

They will adorn our Christmas Tree (thank you Redman family for your donation) until Friday - then we will take them home and put on our Christmas trees at home year after year after year to remember our fun times and good friends that we made in Ruma Ruru in 2012.

Thanks to Melissa's Mum, Lachlan's Mum, Tyler's Mum and Lucy's Mum for helping out. Do you know why I put an apostrophe before the s when I wrote the children's names???

Here is the slideshow!

Zoo Trip Sneak Peak...

Today we went to the Hamilton Zoo - wow, what an amazing day.

Here are a few sneak peaks from Lachlan's Mum. We will make a video of all the photos tomorrow.

Enjoy...

Baking Christmas Goodies

Today we made LOTS of Xmas Goodies with our buddy class - Ruma Korimako.


We had different stations that we moved around making sugar and spice cookies, chocolate and raisin balls and lolly balls. We also had an art and craft station where we made cards and decorations for the tree.

We had so much fun and had so many xmas goodies to share with teachers and Mums and Dads!

We also found out that Miss Collins loves glitter - thanks for a fun day Ruma Korimako and to the Mums who helped us.

Athletics Day in the Juniors

On Friday on a day not too hot, nor too cold the Juniors held their Athletics Day.

We started with some running races and then held some tabloid events that the senior children helped us with.

Then we had a shared lunch and handed out some certificates.

It was a great day!
