Last week it was Gianni’s turn for Birthday baking in Greymouth. We made a chocolate cake. He was very proud and watched it eagerly while it was baking in the oven. He enjoyed icing it at the end and sharing it with all his friends.
Upper South Year 7/8s had a blast learning about Life Saving and Beach Education! We learnt 5 rules to keep us safe at the Beach. Our learning is presented in a poster. Outstanding posters are Madison, Montana, Tauri, Danelle, Imogen, Yves and April. Well done to Boston who was selected for "Student of the Day" from our lifeguards. A big thank you to all parent helpers including Burkley, Arthur and Jamie. A great day! Thanks Hero Lifeguards! Upper South Year 7/8s had a blast learning about Life Saving and Beach Education!

Year 3-4 students had a wonderful time learning about how to stay safe in the surf and also how to be sunsmart. They enjoyed a variety of learning activities at school, on the beach and in the water.
We wrote instructions for how to stay safe in the surf. This is what Maeva and Tesori wrote:
The Blenheim students have had a great start to 2020. We welcomed four new Y3 students. The senior students quickly adjusted to their new timetable. New furniture has been purchased for the Learning Centre and will be set up soon. On Wednesday 4th March all the Y9-13 students travelled to Murchison for a campus get together as well as games of soccer, touch, volleyball and basketball. The day was thoroughly enjoyed by all the students.
The senior students were shouted a morning tea in acknowledgement of their good behaviour at school and sportsmanship shown on the field. Some photos below.
The West Coast Year 10s have been gardening as part of their ‘Garden Investigation Project’ for Science. The students have been experimenting with different fertilizers and planting such things as carrots, flowers and thyme.
Here is Tansi Hill planting the carrots in the garden that the West Coast students have prepared for this project.
Here is a good example of our Self Directed Learners from Greymouth all hard at work. Well done!
