Recycled Gardening Week 7

Hi Parents and Caregivers,

As part of our topic 'Green Fingers' Room 22 is learning to make a plant holder out of recycled materials. We all provided a recycled item to make our plant holder out of. Some items we decided to make our plant holders out of were: a lamp shade, a wooden box, a blender jug, a cardboard box and milk bottles. Today we put soil in them and planted our sweet peas seed. We have decided the seeds need: water, sunlight and soil. For the last two weeks of school we will be looking after our seeds at school. Hopefully they all grow.
 

Thank you, Room 22

We are learning to write letters in the correct format. We will be publishing the letters on special writing paper and posting them off to Santa. Please come in and tell me if your address has changed so your child recieves a letter back from Santa. Here is the details that are posted on the nzpost.co.nz website.

"Send a letter to Santa

Ho, ho, ho from Santa’s workshop...send a letter to Santa this Christmas, and he will write back.

Hi kids!

It's nearly Christmas time so be sure to write to me and tell me what you want this year. All you have to do is fill in the form below by Friday 14 December and I'll send you a letter through the mail in return! Be sure to fill in your correct address too.

Or, if you want to put pen to paper, write me a letter using your favourite stationery, put it in an envelope and stamp it then post to my postal address below. Don't forget to include your name and full postal address!
