Masks

Did you know Matua Mike is back this term teaching in Room 13.  For the past week he has been teaching room 13 about what a mask is for and how to create one. Have a look at the pictures below to find out what we have done. On Thursday the masks will be available for you to view in the classroom!

Battle of Agincourt.

Last Friday all the children at Nelson Central took part in the Battle of Agincourt. The Battle of Agincourt was in 1415, between France and England. Room 13 think we recreated the battle with passion and fun. Click on the link below for a look at the photos.

During Creation time this afternoon we created origami cats. We needed to listen and follow instructions to make the cats head and then construct the rest of the body. All of our cats were different, unique and special.

School Disco

Friday night was our school disco. Lots of children from 13 went to the disco and danced the night away. Here are some photos.
