Room 4 were put through their paces in the first fitness test for the year.... Everyone pushed their bodies to the limit! Check out the action video below. ![]() We got dropped off down at the Lake in Waihola for rafting. I couldn't wait until we started! First Mr Sloan has us find some things that we will need to help us when we are racing. All of the girls were working hard. We tied the ropes, wood and tyres together. We said who would be going in the water to race. Mr Sloan said time was up and we got a chance to see if would float. We got into the water and Go!! We were off the boys were in the lead but they fell off, now the girls were winning we got up on the bank. Yes! the girls won it was so much fun. ![]() I hope that everyone enjoyed seeing their children arrive home from camp yesterday. There have been some very sleepy and suitably exhausted students here today! Camp was a great success, we had perfect weather, fantastic helpers and most importantly an amazing group of students. Everyone was enthusiastic and motivated to make the most of everything that we did at camp. Although the camp was only two nights and three days we packed lots into it so there should be lots of memorable stories of camp activities and adventures to share with you all at home. If I didn't get a change to thank you face to face at the end of the day/camp please accept this as a big thank you to all of you for you inputs for camp whether it was helping with transport to or from camp and or helping out with activities during the time at camp. Without the help and support the camp would not have been able to operate in the way that it did. Over the next week we will be carrying out some follow up work relating to camp and students will have some writing, videos and photo stories to share via our class page so be sure to check in there to see some of the action from camp in the next few days/week. There are a few pieces of misplaced clothing and gear we will do our best to reunite this gear with owners of it asap! Next Monday to Wednesday are our parent interviews, this is a great opportunity to discuss how things are going for your child and to set some goals and make plans for a successful continuation of the school year. If you haven't had a chance to make an online booking there is a link and code to this on the font page of the school website at the moment www.balmacewen.school.nz where you can make a time through the online booking site. I look forward to chatting with you all next week. As always if you have any questions or concerns feel free to flick me an email, or pop into the class. Kind regards Andrew Great stuff Adam, this weeks awards were given out for "managing self" - you have shown a good ability to work hard on set tasks and manage your time and work effectively. Keep it up!
