Cramming lots into our last week together.

 We are having a fun last week at school. Yesterday we had our Tryathlon. Today we had our prizegiving, where many of the R4 students were celebrated. There were many more that have shone throughout the year that didn't get up onto stage but could easily have. This afternoon we had the Rubik's cube championships and R4 was well represented. Here are the videos. 

For lunch today Pita Pit supplied us with yummy Teriyaki rice. It was very delicous. We are helping Pita Pit Rotorua by giving them feedback on their new product for schools. 

Tomorrow we have our Year 6 missioning at 11am, whanau are welcome. School finishes after the Missioning. 

Have a happy and holy Christmas with your friends and family.
