My Friends

This is my Friends.
By Chathuli.

I am enjoying sitting next to Chathuli. She is a fun girl to be around and full of ideas. I wake up in the morning and start pestering my mum to get to school because I want to see Chathuli.

Welcome Chathuli!

Today a new student started in our class. Her name is Chathuli and she comes from Sri Lanka!
Her family has just moved here from Sri Lanka. She is really good at maths!
In Sri Lanka she went to a school only for girls and her uniform was white.
She knows some English and is learning more.
I wonder what her first impression of Room 8 was? I wonder what she thinks of the food in NZ?

She has made lots of friends.

I hope she likes it at Harewood School!


I like this school very much. I have lot of friends. They are very kind to me. They names are Alice, Ashley, Katerina and Nesha.

Welcome to Harewood School

Creating with Clay

We have been learning about clay over the last 2 weeks. We made pinch pots. We had to roll a ball and then pinch them into a pot. Then we had a go at coil pots they were lots of fun. We made lots of little  sausages and coiled them around and then flattened it with our fingers.

Next time we do it we are going to have a go at pebble pots!!
