Swimming

Watch for tomorrow photo's

Kia ora, welcome to Room 7 and 2016! School starts Wednesday and I am looking forward to seeing all the children bright and early before 8:45am.  Michelle


Wow! Room 7 started swimming last week with Room's 3 & 9.  The pool is warm, the instructors nice and the walk to the pool is quick and easy.  We swim Tuesday to Friday this week. This is our last week of swimming so all children must have their togs each day.  We leave for swimming at 10:15am and return to school before 1pm.  Everyone needs their togs and sensible walking shoes.  Thanks Michelle

Schools Out!!!

Good Bye Matua Rob

 On the last day of school we had to say goodbye to someone special - Room 3's awesome teacher Matua Rob.





Here is Matua Rob with his class.







We have been so lucky to have Matua Rob at Russell School. He has done so much for us, like teaching us about the Alopha programme and taking the Culture Club. He has organised Umu's and Ma'a to come and visit and he was a great little pig at the concert!!

Thank you Matua Rob for all you have done for us.

We hope you will come back as a reliever next year!

 Today Room One changed rooms with Room 9.
I felt excited when we went inside and I saw the lovely decorations and when we were putting our stuff in Room 9 it was a lot of work and when we went on the top field we had lots of fun games to play.
