The Week After Camp!

Raft building

Waimangu Valley: Echo Crater

This week has gone by in a blurr! It has certainly taken a few days to catch up on sleep after those action packed days at Lakes Ranch. Unfortunately I lost a camera so only have a few photos to share but here are a few:

More from Waimangu

The Water Slide

The Splash

The hot pools were used A LOT!! It was great for activities and for relaxing. At times it was hard to see water for children.

The abseiling was a challenge for many - me included. The setting was amazing and it was a real highlight for me to be able to watch the Room 11 students taking on the "wall"!

and yip... I had a go too!

On our return to HNI this week we have been busy creating our class banner for next week's Kotahitanga celebration! We successfully managed to put 32 handprints on without painting ourselves and each other. The proverb translates as "Many hands make light work" and backs up the term focus of unity.  

We also had a "go" at the Hongi - before our visit to Matahiwi Marae on Monday.

                                      

     

So that is a brief look back on the last couple of weeks in Room 11!
