What I saw in the local newspaper

I was sitting in the staffroom yesterday reading the local newspaper (The Waitomo News) and I spotted one of the children in my class.  You might be able to spot him too (if you have read Sid's Posting on his athletics medal).

My Medal

I go to Otorohanga Athletic Club on Tuesday after school.  I started in October and now it is finished.  We do heaps of practice to get better at long jump, shot put and running.  I got a medal last week. I came third in shot put.  My distance was 6.99m.

  

We are kind and helpful, we do not hurt anybody's feelings.

We have been talking this week in our classroom about how we show that we are kind and helpful people.  This is one of our Golden Rules. Matauri did this picture about how he helps people when they are sad or if they are hurt.

When I see someone crying I go up to them and ask them what is wrong.

Sid wrote about some of the things you do to show that you are a kind and helpful person.  He likes to use his manners.

People help me when I am in pain.  They take me to the teacher or to my Mum and Dad.  

When I really want something I use Please and Thank You.  It's called using your manners.

Mary and Peter did a show and some tricks.  In the story they did a chicken, a wolf and a cow and dog were going to the palace to meet the King because the sky was falling.  They were running, they were running on down the road.
