Production


At the end of the term Hawea Flat School will be putting on a production for the community. The production is called The Button Box. It is a story about two young children who are staying with their grandparents on a wet boring day. Grandma gets out her button box which is full of glorious buttons - each telling a story of Grandmas travels around the world.

Room 4 is looking at China this term, and will incorporate our learning into our part of the production.
If you have anything interesting about China, or any boxes, egg cartons etc that we could use for our arts topic, that you are not using, then that would be much appreciated. You can drop it into Room 4 before or after school.

We hope to see you soon!

Goodbye Autumn






Last week a strong wind raced through our school sending all the leaves to the ground. We enjoyed playing in them at lunch time. Some of us collected them in piles, some of us had leave fights, and some others copied the leaves by dancing around between the trees.

Here are some photos of the last autumn leaves at school...

Rhythm Interactive






We have been very lucky so far this term to be given the opportunity to attend some 'Arty' events around the community.

During week 3 the whole school went into town to see Rhythm Interactive. This was a group of 3 people who entertained us with drums! They interacted through actions, body language and music.
We all got a drum to use while we were there.

Yesterday we went back into town to see the Class Act Opera, and on Friday we have a theater group coming in to entertain us.
We will put another post up of these events later in the week.

Here are some photos of us at Rhythm Interactive.
