3 dimensional Geometry in Room 14

We used play dough to model 3d shapes of cubes, cuboids, spheres, cylinders and cones. Then in our groups we first discussed, and then decided how to form a construction using all our shapes.

A few stars in Rm 14 (seeing it's Matariki!)

Unpicking the Past at Town Acre 445

We went to the Museum to discover and experience what life might have been like for the new settlers who arrived in Nelson on the early ships in the 1840's and 1850's. We are learning about places of significance in Nelson and how the past has influenced what makes Nelson a special place.




Jigsaw puzzle






Room 14 children have been having fun constructing 2 different versions of a large, over 3 feet tall jigsaw puzzle of 100 pieces. Great work little ones! This puzzle is taller than you!
