Where in the world is Karen?

Here is a photo sent in from Karen. She is on the trip of a life time. Where do you think she is?


Start snapping in the holidays, send us your selfies and we can share on our blog.
Here is Mrs S. having hauled up three fish on two hooks from the deep, off Kaikoura.

Ice, Ice Baby!

Team Wairere is having fun learning about ice at the moment.  Ms K has been doing some super-amazing experiments using dry ice.
Ms T, (Room 1's student teacher) has been teaching about what happens when other substances touch ice.  Today we are learning that salt reduces the temperature of ice.
We used this chemical reaction to make orange juice slushies!  Click on this LINK to see how.

Canterbury Bulls Visit Wairere

We were treated to a visit from Canterbury's League team, The Bulls, on Thursday.  Two players threw the ball around with the mascot, Devon the bull and the manager gave us some free tickets to their game on Sunday 13th.  Tainui plays league for Canterbury in his age group, so we invited him to come and meet the players too.  Hope lots of you can make it to their game.
