Sailor Asthma

Today we went to the hall to watch a show about asthma. We found out that our pipes can get squeezed and we can't get air when we have asthma.
We  listened to find out we need 6 puffs with an inhaler and to use the spacer if we have a asthma attack and that it takes 6 minutes to work. We liked the puffer fish and the songs.



Life Caravan

Today we went to see Harold at the Life Education caravan. We found out we need kai, water, be safe, aroha, moe, shelter and exercise to be happy.
To be safe we need to wear our seat belts, wear our life jackets and have an adult watching us when we swim. When we cross the road we need to use the crossing and wait for the cars to stop before we go and we need a adult to help us.
We love Harold and he shook our hand with his mouth. We are looking forward to visiting Harold again tomorrow.

oil and water

We conducted an experiment with oil and water today. We found out that the oil kept rising to the top of the water.  We expected it to fizz over when we put the fizzing tablets in but the bubbles just got caught up in the oil and even when we took the lid off it did not overflow.
When we watched a clip about animals being affected by oil spills we felt really sad. We think we need to be really careful with how we treat our environment and do our best to look after it.







library opening

Today we opened our school library. It was celebrated with a ribbon cutting ceremony, blessing and parade of the children dressed as book characters. Room 6 children came and read with us and we really enjoyed their stories. We hope they come back another day to read with us.
