The Nativity Story 

Retold by Room 2 

Spencer Park Fun Day

Last week the Junior School went to Spencer Park for a fun day. In the morning we spent time playing on the huge playground and splashing in the wading pool. 

After lunch, we walked to the beach to meet the team from Christchurch City Council who lead us on a Searching the Shoreline learning experience. We talked about natural and unnatural things that can be found on a beach and then we went on a 'treasure hunt' to search for interesting things. We collected some unnatural waste which we sorted into recycling and rubbish. We also found exciting natural things like shells, driftwood, crabs nippers, and heaps of seaweed! We used our natural treasures to write a message in the sand - 'Look after our world'. 

It was such a fun, busy day out and there were a few sleepy friends on the bus on the way back to school! 

Thank you to all our wonderful parent helpers who made this trip possible. 

This term we have had so much fun learning about the environment and how to be 'kaitaki' (guardians) of our earth.
