We're Going to the Zoo

Last Thursday we were lucky enough to go to the zoo with Room 9.  We saw lots of different animals and some of us even fed the giraffe!  We are all busy writing about it at the moment so hopefully we'll have some more zoo postings soon.  For now you can check out our video to see what we got up to.

The Return of Wally

We got a big surprise when we came to school on Thursday last week - Wally was had come back to Room 10.  We found him in the library corner reading a book and eating chocolate!  We were very excited, especially because he came back right on time for our trip to the zoo. He said he had lots of fun at Green Bay Primary, but he is happy to be back in Room 10.  I wonder what his next adventure will be.

Face Time with Wally and Room 5

Our Giraffe Wally has been on an adventure for the last ten weeks and we miss him.  He's at Green Bay Primary School at the moment so we thought it would be a good idea to call them and see how he is.  We'd also been working on some persuasive letters and we wanted to read some of them to Room 5 to see if we could convince them to let us have Wally back.   We had a lot of fun chatting with the children in Room 5 and we know Wally is happy there.  Our letters must have worked though because he's going to be coming back in a week.  We can't wait! 

Here are Siale and Losana reading their letters:

Wally has been found!

Last week we got a comment from Green Bay Primary School saying that they had found Wally! 

We were very excited that he has been found safe and sound.  The children in Room 5 at Green Bay Primary School are looking after him well.  They are putting up posts on their blog to let us know what Wally has been getting up to.   We think it was our missing posters that helped us to find Wally.  Here is Scott reading his missing poster.  

Where's Wally

This is our class giraffe, Wally.  In the school holidays he went to Samoa but we haven't seen him since.  We've had three postcards from him, one from Holland, one from England and one from Australia.  In his last postcard he said he was heading back to Auckland, but he still hasn't come to see us.  If you see him running around Auckland city, send us a comment to let us know.
