It was triple luck for Room 16 when three children had their names drawn out for snacktime superheros. Then again this week we had another three children's name pulled out.

Faauma has been coming to netball practises each day and has been listening to what Mrs Lal says. Good work Faauma. You are improving your netball skills.
This weeks certificates given out at our Team Assembly were awarded to Sione and Faauma for their good attitude towards their learning. They are trying their best and putting effort into their work. Ka pai Sione and Faauma.
When we "warm up our brains" for literacy, we read the letters of the alphabet off our butterfly cards, say the sound as well as sign it. Signing is New Zealand's third official language and the children have quickly learnt to sign the alphabet. Here is Fa'auma signing the letter "B" while Mareikura is making a butterfly with her hands.
On Friday Point England school had a fun fund raiser. We were raising money for Tonga and in exchange for a gold coin, the children could wear mufti and ride their bikes around at school at lunchtime. There was an assortment of wheel ranging from skate boards, scooters, bikes and trikes. Mr Burt kindly gave team one rides in his bike trailer and up on the high seat on his bike. It sure was a fun day and Faauma's face tell you how much fun.
