Book week this week!

We were lucky enough to get to see the books for the book fair being dropped off last week. We enjoyed watching the hoist go up and down when we said, "Up!" and "Down!" We are excited to be able to go and have a look at all the wonderful books that will be available. 








 Geronimo Stilton also came to visit us in Room 8! We were very excited, especially Ms Pearce.





Our end of Term 2 "Frozen" Pajama party!

We worked so hard on our learning in Term 2 that we decided we would like to have a pajama party and watch the Disney movie "Frozen". We had popcorn too! Thank you to the CB's family for letting us borrow the DVD and BN's family for letting us borrow the "Crazy popcorn popper" and the lovely warm knitted blankets. 








Agent P's holiday with Ms Pearce!

Agent P had a very exciting holiday with Ms Pearce. He went from Auckland to Taupo then to Napier then to Palmerston North. Then Agent P travelled all the way back to Auckland. He had a great time! Thank you to the Peer Mediators for letting me have him for the holidays. 

Here are some photos:

We LOVE this book!


We came across this book in our Term 2 National Library book collection and we fell in love. We almost read this everyday this Term! 

Moo! is about a cow who dreams of driving a car then takes a car for sale on a test drive. The difference with this book is it only has one word (apart from the ending!) in it: Moo! 

A lovely book by David LaRochelle. Room 8 highly recommends this book to all.
