Helicopter At School

Today a helicopter came to school. It picked up Melinda the photographer and she went up and took photos of the whole school making a big 300 on the back field. We have got 300 pupils at Brightwater School for the first time ever.

Robyn Belton visited our school last week. She illustrates books like Greedy Cat and Herbert.
She told us how she gets her ideas from real things - like Katie in Greedy Cat was based on her daughter or how she visited the place where Herbert fell into the sea in the sounds. She drew a picture for us. It was amazing.

Junior kiwi sports

On Thursday the juniors went to kiwi sports for fun and exercise. We looked like a green caterpillar walking . There were lots of poeple and games there. It was fun and nobody got lost. When the bell rang it was just like school but there were too many lunchtimes and morningteas. There were obstacle courses and dancing and skipping. It was awesome.
