The Pond

Today Room 2 were invited to Tokomaru Preschool to see the performance 'The Pond' by the Little Dog Barking drama company from Wellington.
The Pond is a magical journey through the eyes of the creatures and plants that live in and around the pond and whose daily lives depend on the importance of water for survival. The play begins with rain, rain that makes the puddles, the rivers and the ponds.

L&P Chocolate review

In Room 2 we have been looking at how to be food critics and write reviews about food.
Last week we looked at the new chocolate from Whittakers. White chocolate mixed with L&P.
Here is what we thought!

I smelt L&P.- Harrison

It tingled on my tongue because it had popping candy in it. - Ava

It tastes fizzy on my tongue. -Zion

I can feel bouncing in my mouth.
I can feel tingling on my tongue.- Zavier

It’s like an explosion - Faith

I would give it 10 out of 10.- Ji'reh

Making Butter

Yesterday the Greedy Cats read the story "Here is the Butter" so Harrison and I decided today we would make butter. All you need is cream, a jar, a marble and lots of muscle power to shake it up!
Have a go at home! After we made some fairy bread :) Yum!!
