Hard to believe we are already two weeks into the Term!

This Term is going to be very busy with Cross Country, Winter Olympics, Speeches and much much more! 

Our inquiry focus this Term is focusing on Te Aroha's past, present and future. So far we have already learnt a quite a few things we didn't already know about our town. We have had some pretty interesting debates about the L&P drink should actually be called L&T, as apparently it was originally from from Te Aroha!! 

We also had Mr Spicer's mum Mrs Spicer come in and talk to us. She had quite a few interesting stories about Te Aroha's past, and Mr Spicer!!

There is still a lot about Te Aroha's past that we would like to know. If you or someone you know would be interested in talking to our class and sharing your stories we would love to hear from you.

This week we used our senses to write a poem about where we are from. These have been published under our individual blogs. There are some very talented writers in Room Two.
