Rimu Teams 5 & 6 - Term 2 Week 4 ending 25 May 2018



The Rimu Team



The Term So Far..

Art is definitely underway now with Jack's photography looking really incredible and Sven's Korowai cloaks beginning to take shape.  Parent help is always needed during this time so feel free to drop Jack or Sven a line if you can help out.

Writing this term has been a great time for the students. Sven's group have created some great narratives that will slowly begin to appear on the walls in our space, in our new Published Section. Jack's group have looked at persuasive writing and are now using that to take part in some class room debates which are looking really strong from all sides.

We will also start Genius Hour every Friday which is very exciting as it allows us to explore things we love and are passionate about.  Below is a link to a website with lots of useful information and background history on Genius Hour

X- Country
X-country hopefully this week! As Wednesday was postponed we are hoping it will be all go on Thursday 24th at Cox's Park. We will need to ensure we have running shoes and comfy exercise clothing every day as we will be practicing every day after lunch.  Sven and I have been stoked with how many students have turned up to our morning practices and are sure the ones putting in the hard work will see the results on the day.

The order of races are:
Year 3, 4, 5 and 6 non-competitive 1 lap
Year 4 girls competitive 1 lap
Year 4 boys competitive 1 lap
Year 3 girls competitive 1 lap
Year 3 boys competitive 1 lap

Congratulations

Congratulations to all the Bayfield students who took part in the Inner City Swimming Event. Although we weren't able to defend the cup this year, our swimmers did such an incredible job. We had a lot of students either place or win the finals and all our students should be very proud. They represented Bayfield so incredibly well!
