Team 3 Fun Day

 Last week, the students of Team 3 had a very fun day while at school. We had some yummy popcorn, wore our pyjamas, and watched a funny movie in the morning. During the middle block, we did some dancing and painting and after lunch we had fun singing some of our favourite songs. 

Pirate Animation

 During term 2, we were learning about Computational Thinking and in our literacy class we were learning about pirates. We discovered that pirates had to do a lot of computational thinking (without computers!) in order to create and follow their treasure maps. Check out this collaborative Google Slides animation we made as a literacy class reciting the poem "Pirates" by Pauline Cartwright.

Encanto Day

 When we arrived at school today, the teachers of Team 3 had a special surprise for us! We were having an "Encanto Day." Our teachers were all dressed up like the characters from the movie and we had lots of fun expereiences all day long. Check out this amazing video that the teachers made to highlight our day.

Musical Madness Animations

This term, as part of our school wide topic inquiry "Musical Madness" the students of Team 3 worked together to animate some of their favourite songs.

Mrs. Moala's literacy class put together two animations this term, and we used part of one for the beginning of our school prize giving item.

We hope you enjoy!

2017 PES End of the Year Picnic

The students and staff at Pt England School are definitely blessed!  We have the gorgeous Pt England Reserve/Beach right next door, and we took off to have our school picnic for the whole day. Once we arrived at the beach, students were able to play in the sand, or stay up on the reserve and play rugby, cricket, volleyball.  Students were also able to hang out with their friends and play on the playground.  After being there for a short time, it was time for Team 3 to have their swimming block!  The teachers made a human circle and the kids had a blast swimming and splashing around with their friends.

PES Athletics Day 2017

We had an amazing day this year for our PES School Athletics. All of our Year 4 students did an amazing job at each station and we saw lots of support and team spirit.  We can't wait to see how much our Year 4 students improve as athletes in the years to come.

Pav Race Day

Today we have been sneaking into the field to race so we could write about the race.So first we had to wait for Mr Moran to let us go line up. So Mr Moran first  called out every signal group at the right time so everyone would not get pushed. So next when everyone was outside we had to put on our shoe or go bear feet.Then when  everyone  was outside we lined up in 2 lines one boy line and one girl line.Then Everyone was ready to sneak pass the class. So first before I lined up I felt nervous so I was shaking with fear but I still had to run for our writing. Then we all walked down quietly to room 17 and sat on the concrete and waited for our turns so first Mr Moran counted each girl and boy. After he was done counting us he spite each girl and told them to get in a lane. So first the others girls raced then

Finally it was my lines turn to run so I stayed normal and went into a line.Then I waited for Mr Moran to clap a weird thing it was like 2 blocks sticked together but not with tape so when he clapped the 2 blocks together I ran as fast as I could and I used all the energy I had left but I did not make

It i did not come 1st or 2d or 3d or 4th but I did not care I tried my best but to me I was close but I did not win and I felt good because I ran and I have not run like that in ages since my leg got really sour for weeks

So then it was the boys turn and they did a great job to me then when everyone was done doing the race it was close to the final race so the girls who won the race had to race each other and then some of the girls who won the othe race did not make it next it was the boys turn and some did not make it

Finally it was the final race girls vs boys the race was called the sprint race next when everyone who was racing  was getting ready then Mr Moran told us a secret he whispered the secret to us and told us that its not gonna be a sprint race it is going to be a crab race so first Mr Moran told the other kids who are going to race and they were like what so also Mr Moran was gonna race with them so even doe he was a bit older then everyone he let some one else do the blocks so

At last everyone was finish racing and the winner was Mr Moran and after that we went back to class to do this writing...see you later.
