PMP

Twice a week, we have lots of fun and learning at our PMP sessions in the hall.  PMP stands for Perceptual Motor Programme.  The teachers have to set out all the equipment for five stations that help the children to improve their balance, coordination, eye motor control, perception and stamina.  Parents help the children at each station and these helpers are so important to ensure that the children are doing the activities in the correct manner.  Most of all PMP is fun!

We are so grateful to our parent helpers who manage to spare an hour each week to help us.If you would like to lend a hand at one of our sessions on a Tuesday or a Thursday please email your T group teacher.

Road Safety Skills in Action!

This week we went on our road safety skills walk and practiced what we have learned over the last week.

A big thanks to all our grown-up helpers who came along with us.

Traffic Week

This week in Ahuriri we have been looking at traffic. On Monday we walked out on the special new path to the gate and sat and watched the different traffic go past. We saw a variety of things - Motorbikes, cars, trucks, buses, pedestrians, vans and bikes. 

Stop!

Look!

Listen!

Before you cross the street!

Being Safe Around Dogs

This week we have been looking at dogs.  We have had some stories about the naughty Pig the Pug, made dog toys and found out how to be safe around dogs with the Christchurch City Council.  Chris told us "If a dog's on it's own, leave it alone!" and to always ask before you touch a dog.  We then role played how we approach a dog and wrote great describing stories about pugs.

Beautiful party food.
