Nga Ringa's Outing to Mangonui Police Station

Nga Ringa's Outing to Mangonui Police Station

When we walked down, it wasn't that long. We came to see the police station. Then we went in the cell. Finally we had ice blocks. We walked up the stairs. There were heaps of stairs. We got back to school and had our lunch. Liam

We were in the cell and it was fun. Then we went in the police car. He put on the siren. He showed us his tools, his taser gun and his pepper spray. He had a note book and another notebook. He had handcuffs. He let us go into the holding cell. It was fun. Estella

We went to the police station. We had a turn going in the car. We talked about his police tools. His vest was stab and gun proof. It was fun going there. Breeze

The ice blocks were so, so yummy! Connor

On Friday we went to the Police Station and we had an ice block after we finished our visit. Then a kind lady came and gave us some lollies. Finally, we walked back to school. Gracie

Duffy Show

Duffy Show

Today Duffy Theatre visited Mangonui School. The show was called  “Duffy and the Cloak Bay Bully”. The Books in Homes message was “It’s cool to read and it’s cool to achieve”.

First they played soccer and then they started the show. Gracie

When they did the ghost part, the skeleton was super funny. The skeleton did a dance. The dance was funny. Breeze

When Duffy put the book in his book, then he gave it to the girl. He put that thing on her head and raised the arrow up and down. Tyler

When he got his book out, he went on the toilet to read it. He said "You can't go to the toilet without a good book to read". Brody

When they had toilet paper in their shorts it was funny and everyone laughed at them. Tyler

When he read his book in the toilet, he forgot to take the toilet paper out after he wiped. When he did the show it was funny because were being silly and funny. Brody

It was super, super funny. Connor

That girl was pretending to go to sleep. The other girl was asking what was wrong. Her friend was being really mean and a bully. That is why it was called the Cloak Bay Bully. Estella

When the dad watched the scary movie on TV he fell asleep. Then the girl was trying to steal the cookies. Liam

The teacher was a mean teacher. The girl fell asleep in the show. Attalia

They both had to say sorry to each other. Rangitamoe

At the end the girl wasn't scared when the other girl was bullying her. The teacher was funny singing. Breeze

Kaitiaki of Papatuanuku

Kaitiaki of Papatuanuku

We found lots of balls down the piggy track. We put them back in the ball basket. Ashton

We like being kind to papatuanuku. We like putting the balls back. Breeze

We took a picture of the balls we found. Rangitamoe

We walked around the school looking for balls. We found lots. We put the balls back in the ball basket. Brody

We planted some plants with the big kids. It was fun planting. Attalia

We are growing more trees. Gracie

 We are putting more trees in so the trees can have a home and can live. Ariya

We planted trees by the piggy track. There were lots of trees. I planted two flax. We planted three hundred trees. It was fun when we planted the trees. Brody

We liked putting plants into the ground.  Papatuanuku gets more plants and trees. We can be kind to the environment. Breeze

We put the plants into some holes. Attalia.

I liked planting the plants because they are special to me. The best bit was breaking the soil for the plants. Liam
