Milk Train

The weather has been so wet that there was a big slip in the Manawatu Gorge. This is the road between Woodville and Palmerston North. The milk train hit the slip, luckily no one was hurt. The milk has to go by road over the next few days until the railway line is repaired.
We have our end of term break at the moment. No school for two weeks.

Woody bunter goes on holiday.

Sian is saying goodbye to Woody Bunter. He is going with Mrs Humphry to England for one month. Have fun Woody and behave yourself.

worm farm

We have made a worm farm in room four to put all our scraps in. We put tiger worms in it from mrs Wiri's worm farm. When we finished all the worms fell into the bottom bucket because the hole was too big in the top bucket. How can we stop that happening?
