Western Heights Olympics


Room 6 is representing India in our Western Heights Olympics. We mad our own flags.


During the opening ceremony a real torch with a real flame was passed around the school by the teachers. We found this very, very exciting!!



Then the whole school assembled together for the National Anthem, Olympic Oath and Prayer.



We even had our own Greek maidens.


What countries can you see represented?



On Tuesday we had our Olympic marathon. Look at us ready to go!



Off go the boys.


 A big CONGRATULATIONS to Joshua who got a gold medal, and Cruz who got the bronze. Well done boys. You made me proud!!

Gymnastic Fun


We played for an hour at Olympic Park in New Lynn



Some of us even saw eels! They were not what we expected.


Room 6 on the Rock Garden


Look how high we climbed!




What shapes can you see on the playground?



Who's that monkey?


How many people can you fit on one swing?





This is where we became gymnasts.


You have to stretch first.





Look at Alex hanging over the foam pit.


That's a big jump, James.


Great landing, Kaitlyn!


Joshua on the vault.


Janine and Justine helped us on the rings.



We were pretty good at the beam.



Some of us even walked backwards!








This was the longest trampoline ever.







Who's that super woman?!
