Week 9 School Assembly

Today Flynn received a certificate at our school assembly.

Flynn is a great reader. He uses lots of strategies when he reads and he has made great progress. 

Congratulations, Flynn, we are proud of you. Keep working hard.

It was great to see everyone back at school today. We have enjoyed catching up with our friends and getting back into our school routines. We talked about the big earthquake, the after shocks, and what we did to keep ourselves safe. We had an earthquake drill practice and everyone was calm and sensible. Some of us wrote about the earthquake. Here are our stories:

I looked at the window. I am at Dad’s work. Dad’s work is in town. By Zac

When the earthquake shook I was scared. I was at my Grandma’s. I was safe because I knew lots of things about earthquakes. By Matthew

After the earthquake I felt really scared because I was at Gemma’s house and not with my Mum. Dad came and picked us up. By Molly

I was scared. We checked the road. The light was broken. It was fun. By Benj

I went all around the town on the earthquake day. I got bored because there were too many buildings with bits on the ground. By Nico
