Today was a busy day with swimming, spelling, assembly, narratives, relating to others and heaps more! We did a big segment on relating to others in different ways like how we relate during I.T.C, between men, in Music etc. We did this to help us relate to others in the future.
Yesterday we went to an excelent show called 'Paua'. It was about a serial killer who goes round and KILLS the people poaching paua. And the weirdest thing was that the police had no leads. This turned out to be because someone in the police force was helping the killer and clearing the evidence before the police arrived. It was a great show with only 7 actors!! The sound effects were perfectly timed and the lighting was to die for.

A great thriller ~ Jack Crawford, Muritai School Critic

Awesome show with fantastic quick changes. I was constantly on the edge of my seat with fear. I would highly recommend this!!! ~ Lulu Carter, Muritai School Critic

Today was a bit of a hectic day of finishing tasks but we managed to squeeze in a visit to the library and a short but sweet visit with our buddies in Room 8!

We also did narrative writing about some illustrations and captions in a book we read part of. This book was created by a man named Harris Burdick who dropped off some pictures to a publisher and then was never seen again.
