And we sat down to learn about some different topics, such as how muscles work.

Aomi even won a pen with a caliper attached, which is used to measure the distance between two sides of an object.

Reminder: Science Fair projects should be coming together now, they are due next Friday.

Diet Water Presentation!

As part of their Cycle One presentation Diet Water created a video to help share their message of the importance of a healthy lifestyle.

Swimming Sports

On Friday we had Swimming sports, we were very lucky with the weather as we had such a fantastic day.

The day began with our whanau chants, Cooper's chant was pretty impressive and went well with their Hulk theme and the Ngata whanau all looked pretty in pink. It was great to see all of the teachers dressed up ready for the day ahead.

This was then followed by some fun events such as barrel and rope races, before we got into the competitive swimming races.

Well Done Mansfield, the winning whanau and Congratulations to Brittany, Portia and Neil who have been selected for SEZ swimming.
