Thanking Mr Andrew



Ruma iwa tamariki brought a long a plate of kai to thank Mr Andrew for umpiring our rippa rugby game. We had a grand time and the children all had excellent manners while enjoying the party. They each made a card for Mr Andrew and he was delighted that he could keep the cards, he thought Mr Rush would be jealous!
Thank you to the children and parents who gave such lovely kai.

Friction


Trying to pull a brick along the carpet with cotton was very hard. There was a lot of friction stopping it moving. So.............





by using a piece of wood, wooden rollers and a lot of thinking and team work children were able to move the brick easily with very little effort and very little friction.
