ROOM 3 CAMP, MARAHAU
Camp was awesome! We kayaked, abseiled, cycled, walked in the rain, swam in the sun (including Matua Scott), swam in the rain, made damper, played spotlight and capture the flag (kid's version) and ate very well indeed. The weather proved to be far better than the forecast. All the parents who helped were superb, and so were the kids!! Great memories.
A big thankyou to all the parents who provided transport; to those parents who came and helped for the day; to Ray for the boat; to Josh for the fish; to Hayley, Paul, Jacqui, Karla and Phillipa who stayed one or two nights; to Chris 'the veteran' who stayed the whole time and Cherie 'camp mother' who organised and bought the food and cooked almost everything!

ROOM 3 CAMP NOTICE
Tuesday 21 April 2015
Dear Parents and Whanau,
We are counting the days down till camp…..not next week but
the week after! As soon as possible I will put the important camp notices on
the blog, especially the gear list. However, all camp notices have been sent
home as paper copies already.
The final cost of
camp is $90. Please send the money
to school as soon as possible. It needs to be paid at the school office by next
Friday May 1. Thank you.
FOOD: I have decided that we will have a cooked meal on the
first night, so please DON’T send food for the first dinner, but we
still need some baking for snacks to share. Please don’t send anything with nuts because we have a child with a
severe nut allergy. Thank you.
Kind regards
Scott Stocker

Better late than never: here are some photos from a couple of weeks ago when the children were engaged in a technology challenge. As part of our inquiry into Kotahitangi, we have been learning about team work and building some simple pieces of technology. This challenge was to build a plane using paper, straws and Sellotape.
Raincoat Check
As I mentioned previously I will be checking for waterproof raincoats. This will be happening on the last day of March, Tuesday 31 March.
This then, is the secret message, mentioned in the homework on Friday. Children can write this on a piece of paper and bring it to school to earn Totara dollars. (The deadline is this Wednesday 18 March.)
Secret message:
Raincoat check, March 31
Spelling City
Having thought some more about Spelling City, I won't be putting children's spelling lists on the Spelling City website. The problem is that children's lists are all very individualised-most of the words have been chosen from their writing. In other words, I would have to enter 31 different spelling lists!
However, I think is is possible for children or parents to put their words on the website themselves. Let me know if that is possible.

Motorboat Needed
Yet another post about camp! On Thursday May 7 children will be kayaking at Marahau and I would like a safety boat with a motor in the unlikely event of an emergency. Is there anyone out there who can help? We would need it from approximately 9 till 3.

FIRST POST
Hello everybody
This is Matua Scott's first post for 2015, with the help of Ruby and Cooper. I won't say too much now, in case it doesn't work.
However......children....have you talked to your parents about a raincoat for camp? It has to be good enough to keep you dry. We WILL do the 'hose test' on it at school next term.
Also, remember HOMEWORK BOOKS BACK TO SCHOOL ON THURSDAY. Matua Scott will stand on his head if all the books are back and homework is done.
Regards
Matua Scott
