Term 3

We can't believe how fast our year is going but we're in for another good term!


Our term value is Determination and we are all determined to work hard and make the most of our last half year in primary school.

"Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time."
— Thomas A. Edison


We're all excited because this term the year 6s will be putting on our final camp fundraiser - Camp Stalls! Room 26 were 2nd to host the event this term and had a whole lot of fun putting it on for the whole school. We thank the whole of PCS for supporting us.

2015 PCS Cross Country

In Week 3 this term, we had the annual gruelling PCS Cross Country. Many students in our class made the school team and have been training hard since - for the inter-school Cross Country Zones held later in the term in Week 9. Good luck to all our competitors!

Y6 Speech Competition.

The annual speech competition between the Year 5s and 6s took place last week in Week 7. Nathanael from Room 26 did very well in getting into the finals up to this point. Here he is delivering an informative and animated speech on genetic engineering. Although he did not gain a placing in the Senior competition, he did us proud. Congratulations to the finalists Amber (Y6), Ronit (Y6) and Manav (Y5).

Term 2

In Term Two, Week 3 we had our whole class school assembly. Our theme was about being thankful. Lanijane, Raeolyn and Nathaneal sang as soloists singing a "Thank you" Filipino song. It was hard enough to learn the song in another language and to sing it in front of the whole school but we made it through our nervousness.

Our Term 2 Value was Honesty. Honesty is when you tell the truth and act truthfully. Here are 3 quotes on Honesty :

1. Being Honest never hurts anyone , being a liar only hurts you.
2. Honesty is an expensive gift , don't expect it from cheap people.
3. Being honest in your heart feels better than Ice-Cream !!!

Remember being truthful isn't about making other people happy it's about knowing that in the inside you're happy and that you make others happy too!

At the end of term 1 we said farewell to one of our favourite learning assistants, Mrs Hart. We miss her dearly and wish her well in her new role.

 

When Whaea Paea visited our class for Te Reo we felt so jubilant that we got to test the weather by making kites! Everyone had done such an amazing job to decorate them! Here are some of our excellent art forms.

At the beginning of the term, we had another exciting camp fundraiser with Sports Fun Day! We'd like to say a big thank you to Rm 25 for organising this and to everyone who took part on this amazing day! We know we had a blast!

Half way through the term, we were fortunate to have a lovely student teacher in our class, Mrs Aaliyah. She was kind and friendly and taught us a lot of new things. We enjoyed having her in our class and wish her well in the future with teaching.

Here she is taking us through a few exercises in drama lesson.

In the last week of Term 2, we had PCS' annual Science Wackiest Invention Competition. Many from Room 26 entered and did very well. Watch one of our favourite entries from our very own Vandan. Well done to all entries, you wacky inventors!!
