National Shake Out Day

Last Thursday it was National Shake Out Day. At 9:15 am people all around New Zealand practiced an earthquake drill.
We had to remember to drop, cover and hold.

Here is a short video of us practicing the earthquake drill..

What did we do well? What could we improve on to make sure we are as safe as possible?

Rugby World Cup Sports Day

Yesterday Room 14 participated in the Rugby World Cup sports day organised by Kelly Sport.

We had so much fun participating in each of the different activities and developing our rugby skills. There are definitely a few future All Blacks among us! We finished off the day watching teachers verses students in a game of touch rugby.

Here are some photos from the day...
