Term 3 Book Week

Last week was book week, wow it was a full on!

On Monday we had Grandparents and Dads day. Thank you to all those who came in and read with us, what a treat.






Thank you also to the kind and caring Sarah- you truly are a delight and we are lucky to have you helping us in Ruru!


On Tuesday we had Buddy Class with Kakapo. We got to wear our PJs to school and had toast and milk with our big buddies while we read.








 On Wednesday we had a special visitor - Maria Gill! She is a children's author and we had a blast learning about some of her stories, especially when she got out her cute puppets. If you want to learn more about her : www.mariagill.co.nz





On Friday we got to dress up as our favourite 'animal book character.'


We had a parade and showed off our cool costumes...



These were some of our favourites from other classrooms...


And best dressed goes to...Anika (voted by Charlie our Student Councillor and Miss Welch). Anika was lucky enough to win a Grandma McGarvey Book!


 With special guest hugs from Geronimo Stilton.

  5. The costumes look great and the pajama-party looks like something that I would enjoy. Keep up the good work Ruma Ruru!
