I lived

We are learning new songs at songs and I would like to share these because I love them.

1. Dad, I want to be a Camel.

2. I lived by One Republic.

3. Individuality

When I got home I shared these with my Mum and together we sang all the songs.

Dinosaurs in the Garden

Today I went with my cousins to "Dinosaurs in the Garden" at Auckland Botanic Gardens. I had lots of fun but am really glad that the Dinosaurs are extinct as they were really big and scary. We ended up at the 1:30pm Dinosaur encounter where there were some pretend Dinosaurs walking around but they looked very real.

At the Gym

My Gaint Pumpkin Seed Has Sprouted

Yesterday my giant pumpkin seed finally sprouted after almost 2 weeks!! I was so excited as I have been watering it everyday and hoping to see it sprout within days. Yes! I am well on my way to growing my first giant pumpkin.

Yesterday fresh out the ground.

Today a little big bigger.

Learning Systems

In this term - Term 4 of Year 1 at Primary School we have been learning about "Systems".
I have been watching these videos to learn more about the different systems.

Three Kings Scarecrow Festival

Today I went to the Three Kings School Scarecrow Festival, this was my second time going. I went with my cousins (Aryan & Anya). There were a lots of awesome scarecrows - we sure could do with one for our garden because the birds keep eating my Mum's marigolds. There was also a lots of bargains to be had. I got a police car that I love and a kit for making different toys and charging with solar power - no batteries, just for $2. And I also got lots of books. I did get wet in the rain too :) I wonder why our school does not have a scarecrow festival that would be fun.

Stardome Observatory

This week our class went to Stardome Observatory for a visit. I have been pretty excited about this visit for weeks and the day did not disappoint. I got paired with my friend Amal and got to ride a double-decker bus. The best part was I got to sit on the top level going there and coming back. The observatory was also amazing. We learned about Matariki and the stars in the galaxy.

Learning to Dance

I am seriously enjoying bopping to these videos that Mrs Conaglen showed us at school.

1. Trolls: Can't stop the feeling
2. I'm gonna catch you, you better run.
3. Gummy Bears
4. Dinosaur Stomp

Today my cousins Aryan, Anya and I were dancing to these. So much fun.

Colouring time

My Mum bought a beautiful colouring book and I want to help her colour, but she will not let me because she thinks I scribble outside the lines and will mess up her book. 

So I showed her how beautifully I can colour by colouring in the bird and the buzzy bee below.

I have even drawn love hearts around buzzy bee :)

She let me help her colour in her new book with her.

Nice one Aaroosh.

Growing Giant Pumpkins

Last week I got a notice in my home pack.

Next I went with Mum to Auckland Landscape Supplies to pick up my giant pumpkin seed.

I was given a noodle box, some soil and my magic giant pumpkin seed.

I have planted my seed with the point facing up and given it some water and put it in a sunny spot.

CANNOT WAIT for it to GERMINATE :)

I love gardening with my Mum. I am excited to be planting my very own giant pumpkin seed and looking after it.
I have found an awesome website to learn how to grow giant pumpkins - http://www.giantpumpkins.co.nz/how-to-page
