Friday Fun Day!

For the last two weeks we have been learning about healthy food and in particular what a healthy lunch box looks like.
We finished the topic with healthy shared kai for lunch on Friday. Wow! What a fabulous feast we had. Thank you so much to all the family and friends that helped prepare the nutritious food that was thoroughly enjoyed by all.

It was so hard to decide what to eat! There was so much food we went back again for afternoon tea!

As part of our Healthy Food topic we tried foods that we have never eaten before. We made 'Fairy Rice Crackers'! We talked about how some foods can be healthy but it is what we do to them that makes them unhealthy. When we put the 100's & 1000's onto the rice crackers they weren't so healthy anymore. However we decided we deserved a treat and treats are okay every now and then!
We came up with lots of interesting words to describe the fairy rice crackers, such as, crunchy, colourful, tasty, yummy, white, delicious, messy and they looked like a rainbow!

Friday Fun Day Frog Race! There was a real technique to getting this one right!

The End Planet


In Renwick 3 we all love a great fiction story. Hayden has been very busy at home making a fantastic fictional story about an adventure to the planets with his cat. He was kind enough to take us on his journey last week. We thought it was fabulous. Way to go Hayden! Move over J.K. Rowling!!
