Our Amazing Bedrooms

Mr Scott asked us to design an Amazing Bedroom. We were given a challenge to include at least three items eg: something for a pet, something to entertain, something to light the room. We began by brainstorming ideas with a buddy. We then drew a plan. We then learned how to attach various shapes like a spiral and a cylinder to paper by cutting tabs and using a glue stick. lastly we used these skills and our imagination to construct a 3D model. Mr Scott supplied us with a pizza box each from his work and surprised us with a variety of contents in the box like a small square of blue tac, a pipe cleaner etc.
Here we are presenting our completed rooms to Room 22. They were all truly AMAZING!!
Thank-you Mr Scott and Well Done room 24 for demonstrating the Sunnyhills School Gem - Growth- by being creative!!!

Celebrating Chinese New Year at Sunnyhills School

 We had visitors come to the school to tell us about and demonstrate "The Lion Dance"  It was really interesting and skillful. Some children including Hayley were given the opportunity to play the cymbals. Mrs Dijkstra loved the drums. They reminded her of the Olympics opening ceremony in Beijing where there were one thousand of those drums. They were AMAZING!

Mrs Dijkstra was very proud of these children who wore their Traditional costume to school to celebrate their culture. Everyone in the class made an origami pig to take home.

 We had a special day!

We went on to make our own dragons. Check out the display in our classrrom!
