On Friday we were very lucky to have some New Zealand Royal Air Force heroes come to Fendalton School. They circled the field in their Helicoptor before winching one of the crew members onto the field. Room 14 got to have a look at the Helicoptor and walk through it - it was great to see real heroes in action!

They talked to us about how to look after animals and we now know that...
They need good food and fresh water.
They need shelter.
They need fun and exercise.
They need love and kindness.
We also heard about different types of heroes that live and work at the SPCA.

Butterfly release!
After much discussion we decided it was best to release our butterfly so that it could lay some eggs on a leaf and keep the butterfly life-cycle going.
Butterfly Magic!
At the beginning of this term we were looking at Butterflies as part of our science learning.
Olivia and Ben W brought in caterpillars and a chrysalis for us to look at.
We got to see the caterpillar munch and crunch all of the leaves on the swan plant - it was a very hungry caterpillar!
We watched closely as the chrysalis turned from green to black.
One morning we noticed the chrysalis was empty - what came out of it... a butterfly of course!
Buddy Class
Every Tuesday afternoon Room 14 visit or are visited by Village 22.
Village 22 is our buddy class for this year. We have enjoyed meeting our Y5 buddies and being able to share our learning with them. We have been reading stories to them and talking to them about our Hero learning.
Last week village 22 came for a visit to our classroom. They sang us a song and read picture books to us - it was awesome!
