Term 3

We have been a busy bunch this term getting ready for our BIG EVENT. Our syndicate (the Middles) have been researching what is involved in running a big event because NZ is holding such a huge event; The Rugby World Cup!! (GO All Blacks) Now we are taking the information we have learnt and running our own big event, it is going to be like the amazing race and the winning house will get points. Here are some photos from our visit to Trafalgar Park in our researching stage.
