Congratulations to the following Upper South students on their Conquer Awards.
The Blenheim Year 7/8 students have been busy preparing for the campus Market Day on the last day of term.
Jovan Clifford and Andre Clifford made three different types of candles, French Pear, French Vanilla and Black Raspberry and Vanilla.
The smells coming from the kitchen were divine! Thank you to Lisa Clifford for her assistance with the candles.
All Blenheim Year 3-10 students look forward to selling their handmade items to parents and the community next Friday!
The Blenheim Year 3-10 students have been busy preparing for their market day and look forward to seeing parents and community members on Friday 01st October!
Well.. more like 26 million!
Wouldn’t ewe know it! Last week students at Blenheim campus were lucky enough to have two extremely cute visitors for the day, Rosie and Spot!
The two orphan lambs enjoyed having lots of cuddles from students who also took turns to give the lambs warm bottles of milk.
They were a delight to see and hear and gave the campus a slight farm feel for the day!
We would love them to visit again someday...time wool tell!
The Nelson Juniors held their popular and hugely successful Scholastic book fair last week.
Highlights from the week included a visit from local author Robyn Prokop, who read her picture book ‘Dozer the Fire Cat’ and talked about the process of publishing a book.
We also had visiting teachers who read their favourite stories to the children and a bookmark competition ran throughout the week.
The week ended with an animal character dress-up parade followed by a shared morning tea.
Winners of the dress-up parade were: Tanya Beatson 1st place, Aqueelah Petrie 2nd place and Noah McLean 3rd place.
Bookmark competition winners were: Mahallah Senior, Jairus McLean and Lainee Petrie.
The book fair was well supported by parents and resulted in many donations and money raised to purchase books for our library.
Congratulation to the following Nelson students on their silver awards!
Year 3-6
Year 7-8
NB: The students were having a winter warmers day to help fundraise for the Cancer society.
During lockdown I was inspired by the junior school trick shots, so I decided to see what our Year 7-13 students were made of and asked them to create their own.
We spent some PE time working on these, and I was so impressed with the learning that happened while completing this activity:
- Biomechanics - flight path, angle/speed of release
- Timing
- Feedback and constructive criticism
- Setting expectations
- Being persistent and challenging ourselves
Watch to see how some of our students performed!
