Scooter Skills Thursday 10 September

On Thursday, 10 September,  Maryanne and Tee came to Sunnyhils School to teach us scooter skills. First they demonstrated how to put our helmets on correctly. Then they asked us to check that our scooters were safe. Next Elena and Rebecca showed us how to do the courses which the teachers had set up. We had to get off our scooters to cross the pedestrian crossing and to check the sneaky driveway. We learnt how to control our scooters around cones and to do emergency stops. Aston wore his Scooter Squad vest. He rides to school every morning with the Sunnyhills Scooter Squad.

Room 18 Artists

We made self portraits following the inspiration of the artist Romero Britto. At Kowhai Assembly today some of us shared our art with the audience.

Astons poem

SUMMER IS...

The time to do relaxation

Eat ice cream

Summer is the best

To play video games

To play board games

Sleep in at home in bed

BY Aston
