Our buddies at Bailey Rd School

On Wednesday 5th October 10 children from Kids with aView travelled to
visit the Year 8's in Room 13 at Bailey Road School in Mt Wellington.
Room 8 are our blogging buddies.  Even though they are much older than us they enjoy
visiting our blog and leaving us some awesomely written comments.
The Room 3 children weren't even feeling nervous
about finally meeting their blogging buddies they were just very excited!

WHAT AN AWESOME MORNING WE HAD!

WHAT A WONDERFUL WAY TO MAKE AUTHENTIC CONNECTIONS.

The Room 13 buddies were amazing so welcoming, helpful and patient.
We all looked at each others blogs, made some comments and got to know each other.
The interaction were wonderful moments to watch.
We were also introduced to some more new buddies - Room 2 a Year 1 class.
Now we had 3 new buddies each!
At morning teatime all the children shared a yummy morning tea and went
off to play on the playground.
After morning tea the Bailey Road buddies showed us around their
art exhibition - it was artrageous!
There are so many talented children at Bailey Road.

Thank you so much for our enjoyable visit.

This is Bailey Road Room 02's wiki.

10,000 party - Watch the video

 

On Friday we had a 10,000 party. Anya’s dad brought a giant balloon and some ice-blocks. We had music and everyone brought some food. At our tables we had party blowers and we made party hats. We had 10,000 people visit our blog. Room 8 made us a piñata and we hit the piñata and all the lollies came out.

Did you know what my classroom did on Friday? We had a 10,000 party and when we had it we had music. It was like a disco! Do you know why we had it? It was because we had 10,000 visitors to our blog! Do you know who it was for? It was for kids! I liked the piñata because it had lollies in it.

Well done everyone, what an amazing class you are!

Mrs Laburn was so proud of every one of you,

you danced up on the stage with such enthusiasm and pride.

I am sure everyone took note of the message that 'Bees Need Our Help!'

Here we are in the 'Bee Hive'.

Dear BotanyLife Community Church

I like how you made the gardens look nice at our school. From Zana

I like the maze because it is fun and I like walking around in the maze and I wanted to get to the middle. Thank you for making the maze. From Dykie

Thank you for building the sandpit and the maze. I really like it because the maze is very long and I got to the middle before someone else got to the middle. The sandpit is awesome! From Aum

Thank you for your help with building the garden. I like the sand. From Alex

Thank you for helping in the secret garden. I liked the maze and the sandpit most of all. From Krishant

Thank you for helping to plant our flowers in our corner. My favourite part is the sandpit. What is your favourite part? Did you help each other to work on all the things in the secret garden? From Benny

Thank you for the work. We are so lucky. From Mallika

I see... I think.... I wonder....

I see a caterpillar spinning a cocoon around him. He will turn into a butterfly that drinks nectar. I think the caterpillar is going to be a butterfly soon. The caterpillar grows wings inside the cocoon. I wonder how the butterfly flies to the flower to have a drink? By Krishant


I see a caterpillar change into a chrysalis. A chrysalis turns into a butterfly. I think the caterpillar will turn into a beautiful butterfly. I wonder why he is yellow, black and white? By Tiffanny


I see a caterpillar hanging onto a branch. I can see the caterpillar turning into a cocoon and I see some green things on the chrysalis. I think the caterpillar is ready to almost pop out of the chrysalis. I wonder how butterflies drink nectar from flowers? By Benny


I see the caterpillar spinning a chrysalis. I think it's going to be slow. I wonder when it's going to come out? By Rohan


I see the caterpillar turning into a J shape. I think the caterpillar comes out after two weeks. I wonder how the caterpillar comes out of the chrysalis? By Gina
