Term 2 2014

We have had a busy time this term so far. We have had hockey and turbo touch lessons with the coaches that come from Mid Canterbury and Canterbury clubs.
We have also had the South Canterbury Museum come to help us learn about leaders within the Ashburton District.
Choir is also well underway and our school performance will be on Wednesday June 25.

Fire at School

Yesterday there was great excitement after lunch. Room 10 had smoke coming out of it. The fire brigade came with their sirens blasting. The firemen unloaded and got their hoses. They touched Room 10's door to check if it was hot then cautiously went inside. They rescued 2 teddies from the 'fire'. The teddies were taken outside and had a medical check done on them. After that the smoke was blown out of the room and we all got to have a look at the fire engine.

Thai Student Visit

On Tuesday we had a group of 20 Thai students come to Hampstead School. We had an assembly to welcome them. Fergus did his mihi and Angus did the welcome in English. Tuku also helped. The school san g 2 songs to them. After the assembly the students went to the junior rooms. After morning tea they went to the senior rooms. We had Som-o, Boom and Pat. They did painting with us. Mrs Stevens said that the students from Thailand didn't seem to have done painting before.
