Scott Tulloch and Duffy Books!

Last week was Duffy book week! We had amazing author and illustrator Scott Tulloch join us for a pretty great time. He read us a story, showed us books he'd written and illustrated, and inspired us that it's never too late to follow your dreams. Then finally of course he drew an amazing portrait of Miss Waho, can't you tell! Everyone in the whole school got two books each, we are so lucky and we love our Duffy books sooooo much. Thanks Warehouse Logistics Team and Duffy!

  2. Hello
    My name is Maddison I am a Year 5 student at Yaldhurst Model School ( Yms for short )
    Well now I have introduced myself lets get started

    I really liked all the great pictures, all the books looked really cool to read.

    because there is Kea class, Kiwi class, Pukeko class, and Weka class, what class are you in?

    was it exciting meeting Scott Tulloch the picture he drew was really good and cool.

    Did you get to keep the book or did the school.

    Maybe next time you could make a different layout with the pictures and text so then it will make it more eyecacthing. Also before you post anything reread it so you can spot all the spelling mistakes it was a great blog post come see my blog sometimes have a great day.

    Hiha
    Ko toku ingoa ko Maddison Ko ahau tetahi tamaiti 5 tau i te Yaldhurst Model School (Yms mo te poto)
    I teie nei, kua whakapuaki ahau i ahau kia timata

    I tino ahuareka ahau ki nga pikitia nui, i tino pai nga pukapuka katoa ki te korero.

    no te mea kei reira ko te Kura o Kea, ko te Kiwi, ko te Pukeko, ko te class Weka, he aha te karaehe kei roto koe?

    he hui whakahirahira ki a Scott Tulloch te ahua o te pikitia i toia e ia he pai, he pai hoki.

    I pupuri koe i te pukapuka, i hangaia ranei e koe te kura.

    Pea i muri mai ka taea e koe te hanga i tetahi taapiri rereke me nga pikitia me te kuputuhi na ka nui atu te arotahi. Ano i mua i to whakairi koe i tetahi mea kia taea ai e koe te tirotiro i nga hapa katoa o te tuhi ka puta mai he pourangi rangitaki nui ka kite i taku waahi i etahi wa he ra nui.
    taku korero i te reo maori

  3. Hi Junior hub! my name is Mia from Yaldhurst Model School and I liked this post that you have done! I liked the way you have added photos and a short clip to tell us what happened with the picture that he drew. Looks like the kids have had a lot of fun meeting Scott Tulloch. I'm wondering, which year is which class?

  4. Hello, we are Adams Class at Hay Park School in Auckland. We loved seeing the amazing and funny video that you shared about Scott Tulloch drawing a picture of your teacher. Could you add some names of the books that you were given? Was Miss Waho happy with the picture that Scott drew of her? We thought it was pretty funny.

Letter of the Week

This year we are doing phonics in our homerooms. Kiwi class looks at two letters and their matching sounds every week. Weka and Pukeko classes work together on one letter of the week. Each week we have a letter of the week wall where we display all the things we can find that begin with our letter of the week. Last week our letter was H and we had some fun having Harlin Haines wearing a hat on our h wall. Too cute not to share! This week our letter is J so get your thinking caps on Weka and Pukeko classes, what words do you know that start with J?
