From Petanque in the carpark gravel and basketball up the driveway to croquet on the lawn, Warrington children have adapted well to the changes of restricted playing areas.
Hearing the clip-clopping of plastic stilts and seeing tennis balls whizzing skywards were signs the sports shed was finally reopened. During our first whole school meeting we discussed the use of the sports gear and established some sensible rules. Everyone was pleased to hear that the bouldering wall and sandpit will be open straight after the holidays.
The large ti kouka cabbage tree has been shifted into it's final resting spot behind the rebound wall. The green fingered Room 2 children are watering it everyday as well as tending their own shoe gardens.
Our eco-hut builders were keen to create a subterranean hobbit hole in the space left by the cabbage tree roots but after finding fresh cat poo, gave up on this spot. They have also decided they would probably not need Board of Trustee resource consent to make a hut at the back of the school.
Room 1 students are slowly transforming Blueskin Bay FM. It now has it's own web page blueskinbayfm.co.nz and students' shows are available via podcast. Next term shows from the other classes will be uploaded. BBFM - 88.2 is still beaming live 24/7 and to assist in keeping it advert free, Stephanie and Lichen were chauffeur driven on a successful sponsorship hunt.
