Can you help us?

As part of our studies of Sustainability we are collecting milk bottle and drink bottle tops.
We want to make an art project.

Look at this amazing art created with bottle tops.







We hope we can make something bright and colourful too!

Bike skills

On Friday some great people came to Russell School and taught bike skills.

Telele, Cordeius, Ah Ba and Ajay had lots of fun and learnt a lot.

Thanks Whaea Laura for organising it!

Sun Smart

Hasn't Harmony got a great hat! Not only does it keep the sun off her face, it looks beautiful too.

Food needed

Now we have:











No leaves - just sticks with caterpillars on!

They have eaten all the leaves!

Help - do you have any swan plants we could feed them?
