Book Week

Last week it was book week.
If we brought a book to school we would get a ticket to get another one that we liked the look of.
In Juanita's office there were heaps of brand new books.
On Wednesday it was Grandparents day. A lot of the kids at school had Grandparents, they were all very nice.
On Thursday Kowhai, Miro, and Tawa  houses all did a big book. It was really fun our book was all about shopping for food, Miro house won it but we didn't win the shield.
On Friday it was  Mangamahu cross country. We stayed there for the whole day. It was so close between Gemma and I because Gemma only won by a 2 seconds but it was still really fun, in the end Gemma was 5th and I was 6th.

Bats

Bats sleep in the day. Bats eat flies, insects, weta, and  little black spiders. Bats are the only flying mammal. Like all mammals, they suckle their young until they are fit and ready to forage for themselves. There are more than 1000 bat species around the world, they can be found in every continent, except Antarctica.
