Promoting Nutrition and Health

Hey Parents and Caregivers!

Looking for a way to get involved in your child's learning? Want to get to know the children better in a relaxed and fun environment?

Are you a keen gardner?

We would like someone to come in to Ashhurst school for one lunchtime a week or fortnightly this term to spend time with a group of keen children. You will be working in the Tararua garden to keep the plants/veges alive, weeding, watering, and composting.

Pop into room 7 sometime if you can help in anyway. We look forward to hearing from you.

Our Most Amazing Machine

This term Room 7 and the rest of the Tararua team are making an inquiry into the Human Body and how we can keep our most amazing machine in TOP GEAR.

We will look at how we keep fit and healthy with fitness and food. Also we will find out how the systems in our body work to help us stay healthy and happy.

Maybe you know about something or someone who could help us in our inquiry? We welcome your comments

Our Beautiful World Inquiry Posters (Term 2)

Room 7 have worked very hard on this inquiry. They have thought of some wonderings they had about our beautiful world. Then they looked for information to answer their questions. After that they sorted out the information and presented it on these interesting and colourful displays. The inquiry was about how the environment changes (oil spills, droughts etc) and how this affects an animal living in that environment.

Ask your child all about it and feel free to make a comment.
