Today is Winnie the Pooh's 100th birthday!

Such a wise bear.

Happy Birthday Pooh.

Keep safe and well in your bubbles everyone.

We needed kanuka sticks for an outdoor project we are all working on at the school so decided to visited Chrissie's native bush block nearby. We had fun exploring, collecting small kanuka sticks and creating a teepee with the larger branches that were on the ground. There were many ideas shared, great teamwork between Delrio and Koriana-Mei when sawing the smaller sticks and lots of laughter during this outing.

Spot where Ryker is.

Ryker wanted to practice his deer stalking skills with the neighbouring farmers sheep. His aim was to get as close as possible without them noticing him and he was able to crawl a few meters from the fence before he was spotted! We are so fortunate to have sheep, llama, fallow deer and ducks neighbouring our school grounds.

It was such a beautiful morning so we decided to practice our spelling words outside. We used a stick and the sandpit to write our words then used the rake to clear the sand for the next word.

In the nearby trees we had the Korimako and the Tui birds singing very loudly so we decided they must have also enjoyed the spelling lesson.

We all had a turn using a hobby Dremel and tried carving shapes into our small pieces of wood. We have very creative kids at Taieri Beach School !  😀

 Woodwork time with Chrissie.         😀
