Today we had an amazing day celebrating Jump Rope for heart! We are very active at keeping ourselves healthy here at Te Mahia School and that has been recognised by the Heart Foundation. So today we gave back to the Jumprope for Heart as well as to Starship Children's Hospital by jumping our own little hearts out!
Tamariki were amazing!
They jumped through 10 songs which took them 20 minutes. Thankfully they had wee rests in between each song but they were rather puffed by the end of it! Then we spent another 20 jumping in groups for double dutch and single long rope, as well as a brand new kind of long rope skipping- the egg beater!
It was a fantastic day for a very worthy cause! Ka pai tamariki, it was awesome to see you doing this with a whole bunch of passion and enthusiasm!
This week is going to be a good wrap up of a pretty awesome term....
We have said goodbye to Lucas and unfortunately are farewelling another awesome Room 3 member as Oasis heads to Gisborne to be with his whanau.
But as we say Good bye we also say a very big Hello! To our new student Tylah. Tylah is our 7th girl in Room 3- which all of us girls are pretty excited about!
Enjoy your week whanau and have a safe and happy break!
Room 3 and Mrs Hitchy
