This will be the final blog post for this year and for this blog.
As I said in class this morning, teaching you all has really been a pleasure and a joy. You have all added something special into my life (more than you will ever know) and I know you will all go on to do great things as long as you continue daring to dream and striving to achieve your goals.
You all have unique talents and skills and it is up to you how you use them. Please make good choices, be considerate of others and NEVER give up on your dreams!
Of course, you can't get rid of me that easily. Even though I won't be teaching you next year, I will still be around. Come into A3 and say hi, and come and chat when you see me on the playground.
To the families and whanau; thank you for continuing to support your child this year. While they may not thank you now, they really do appreciate all that you do for them in helping them to achieve their dreams.
I wish you all a very merry Christmas and a happy new year. Stay safe these holidays, look after each other and I look forward to seeing you in 2015.

This week in B2 - Term 4 Week 6
This week has been a busy week in B2. We managed to be blessed with a couple of sunny days so managed to get down to Wainuiomata Pool for some swimming on Tuesday and Thursday.
On Tuesday 68 students from Yrs 4-6 including 11 people from B2 went to the Inter-School Athletics Day. Hopefully we will have some reports from some of these students next week to share with you.
Those who stayed at school completed an art activity based on the book The Taniwha of Wellington Harbour. We had to then draw a scene from the story or a picture inspired by the book. Here are some pictures of us drawing our ideas in pencil first.
We then used crayon and dye to bring in some colour. We used a mixture of green and blue dye. Here are some of the finished artworks drying.
We are also learning about speaking and performing this term. This week each reading group was given a play to learn and present to the class on Friday. Every group worked well on their plays. Some people even learned their lines off by heart.
Every group seemed to enjoy themselves so much we are going to do plays again next week as well!!
Finally, on Friday we found out about St Claudine's 10 year anniversary celebration day. Next Friday (assuming we have fine weather) the WHOLE SCHOOL is going on a trip into Wellington to do some fun activities including a scavenger hunt, look around Te Papa and go the Frank Kitt's Park.
Everyone was incredible excited when they found out.
Come back next week to see some photos from our trip and some more of our learning.
