Tennis

Today we played tennis with Vanessa. There were lots of different coloured racquets. We played Bobsled where you have take turns hitting the ball. We also played Terminator where Whaea Aroha and Vanessa got to throw balls at us.

What we have been doing

Today we have been preparing for our Remember Me Day. This is a special day to remember people you love and to celebrate them.

Marco and Georgina rang the newspapers and the radio to try and advertise this day.
We went on garageband to record an ad for the radio. (Fergus)
We decided what lights we needed and how we can get help to set it up. (Sophie)
We planned the signs for the night. (Brooke)
The music group listened to CDs to create a playlist for the night. (Sasha)
