 What occurs once in every minute, twice in every moment, yet never in a thousand years?

While school is closed...

Hey team.  While school is closed you still need to be doing some writing, reading and maths each day.  You could keep a diary of your day that we can share when school goes back.  You could write me an email  - send emails to kirsty.woods@stalbans.school.nz.  I would love to hear what you are up to.  There are heaps of maths activities on our blog and if you check out other classes blogs too you may find some more.  Read each day to some one at home.  I know my library in Bishopdale is open if you need any books.

Keep safe.

Earthquake

Hey everyone, I hope this finds you and your families safe and well.  The children were fantastic during the earthquake and I was very proud of the way they handled such a traumatic situation.  My family is fine and we are lucky enough to be going to Melbourne tomorrow morning.  I will be back on Tuesday night.

Keep safe.
