Jumping Jellybeans

Today was the first time Riverdale School took part in the Jumping Jellybeans session at Awapuni Library.  
The children encouraged the preschoolers to dance, sing and create and had a wonderful time in the process.  
 

  

Julia and Cate read "The very clumsy click beetle" by Eric Carle to the children and all the children helped the preschoolers make their own click beetle.  

Plans are already underway for our next visit.

 

 





Whole School Opt Ins

What a wonderful afternoon!

Every child at school got to pick the activity they wanted to opt in to and work with children and teachers from all over the school.  We had children playing Rippa Rugby and hanging out in the Outdoor Classroom while others were making bookmarks, paper planes and learning how to use Rakau Sticks.

Chiswick Park - 2nd Visit

It was great to catch up with Margaret and Roy at Chiswick Park.  They already feel like friends.  We also met a few new residents and spent some time chatting to the Massey University Nursing students.  

Our surprise of the trip though was meeting Sophie Mulcahy's gran-nana.  
What a wonderful surprise!



Kind Hearts Baking

A big thank you to Piako Rua for making some yummy ANZAC biscuits for Kind Hearts today.  
  

Piako Rua have decided to bake for Kind Hearts every week in Term 2.  Children have all had the opportunity to opt in to a cooking workshop.  
Thank you Piako Rua!!
