On Tuesday 21st September, Rooms 4 & 3 decided to have a sale to raise money for Kaiapoi people. First we got into groups and did a brainstorm about what we were going to do. We sold toys and food for only 10c each. We raised $137 in our class and as a team we raised $497.80.
How lucky were we! It was our first day back at school after the earthquake when we got a surprise. Daniel had come to see if his Mum and her class were ok after the earthquake. He listened to our stories and answered our questions. Daniel also gave us a signed rugby ball to help us make a difference for the children who were not as lucky as us in the earthquake. Have you got some ideas of what we can do with it?

Bryn made a chameleon out of plasticine. "Chameleons are camouflaged. They eat flies. They climb trees. They are the biggest lizards. They have funny looking eyes," said Bryn. What do you know about chameleons?
The Springston Rockets have been looking at what we need to survive and thrive. After seeing a photo of starving children in Niger, Josh wanted to send his dinner to them! How caring. I wonder what else we could do to help.
