Flag bearer at the Olympic Games

The big question is who will be the flag bearer for each country at the Opening Ceremony of the London Olympic Games 2012?

It is a great honour for one of the team to be chosen to be the flag bearer.

The last 2 flagbearers for NZ have been...

2008 Mahe Drysdale

2004 Beatrice Faumuina

Who will be the New Zealand team flag bearer this time?

The Pine Trees

All the kids at Awapuni School love to play in the pine tress. 

They call it the "forest'.

Room 2 have written a personal recount about playing there. 

Click on their link on the side bars to read their stories about 

playing creatively in the "forest".

Red Sock Day

Awapuni school love caring for our coast.

We all went to the beach where we run our Beach Races 

and cleaned up.

Tau ke te mahi! 

Heipipi Park

We went to Heipipi Park.

We know the person who carved this magnificent waka prow.

I am looking forward to Room 2 telling us more about the 

carving and the carver. 

Term 2 Museum trip

Room 2 went to the Museum.

We learnt more about the Transit of Venus.

We used "starpeekers" made form coconuts.

We had read about starpeekers during the term

 and wondered how they were used. 

We also wanted to know how they were made.

That's why we cut a coconut open one day but ended up eating it
