Notice for Friends & Family of B6...

Well the end of the year has whizzed around.  I have loved teaching your children this year and have really enjoyed helping them to update our class blog.  Included in our posts have been lots of great photos of your children.  If you'd like to save a copy for yourself, all you have to do is click on the image to maximize it and then right click and 'save as' or 'copy' to your own computer.  Although this blog will not be updated after the 19th December, it will remain accessible if you have the link.  Your child's new class will have their own class blog for 2014.  You'll be advised about these when school returns for the new year.  

Wishing all our readers a fabulous festive season and a wonderful 2014.  Thanks for following our blog.

Paper Planes ...

Today we all learnt how to make a paper plane (some made super-fast jets too), decorated them and then went out for a flying lesson on the tennis courts.  It was a windy day which really helped fuel our planes.  Some went in long straight lines, others spiraled out of control.  It was lots of fun...

2013 Leaders Gift ...

What a clever group of senior leaders we had this year at Eastern Hutt.  They have been working away this year creating some beautiful artworks for the school - some wall panels for G Block and some amazing mosaic marine animals for display around the swimming pool.  Their intention, to remind us that we can achieve whatever we set our minds to - whether it be at home or school, in the classroom or in the swimming pool...

Check out some of the pictures from the very special koha ceremony.

Christmas On The Field ...

What a fun night of shenanigans with a band of the same name - Shenanigans.  Tonight we celebrated Christmas at Eastern Hutt with singing and dancing on the school field.  We had a fantastic turnout of school families and friends (students and teachers) and everyone had a lovely evening...

Great entertainment...

Great company...

Time to celebrate...

Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday dear Arden, happy birthday to you...

It was only last week that we celebrated our first birthday in B6 - Neha's.  Today we celebrated Arden's.  What a great way to spend his special day, going on an amazing trip and having his Dad come too as a parent helper. We hope you both had a lovely day, and thank you too for sharing some treats with the class, Arden.

Fun In The Sun...

Today we went on our end of year junior trip.  After a fun trip to Days Bay on the bus recognising landmarks and places we knew along the way, we had a great time trying a whole range of activities including Kelly Sports relay and skill activities, face painting, entertainment from BJ The Bear, bouncy castle madness, scavenger hunt, castles in the sand, checking out the ducks and finally a magic show by Harriet the Clown (and a nice cold iceblock to top it off).  What a fabulous day...

Principal's Award for Excellence...

Today at our Junior Assembly Mrs Henderson came along to present the Excellence Awards for Term 4. Riya was awarded this in Term 1, Ameber in Term 2 and in Term 3 this very special award was presented to Aditya. 

Showing excellence in class means demonstrating all of our school values. For example, always trying our best, showing respect to others, showing resilience when things get hard, taking responsibility for our things ... 

Today Nikhel received the Principal's Award for Excellence for his consistent effort throughout the year. Congratulations Nikhel for showing Excellence at school.
