Our first celebration assembly for 2013
Ben is wearing our class cloak.
This cloak represents every child in the classroom and the values we will show throughout the year towards each other and very person we come into contact with.
Values like respect, kind, caring, thoughtfulness, perseverance, manners, fun, happy, and much, much more.
Max and Sheree read these poems out and the rest of the school had to guess who it was out of the 4 children behind them.

These children were demonstrating what peer mediation looks like at our school. The aim is to get the children to come up with a solution to their problem and the peer mediators are there to ask the right questions.
1. If there is a problem and we can't solve it we find a peer mediator.
2. We have to agree to the 4 rules:
*no put downs
*agree to solve the problem
*no interrupting
*tell the truth 3. Then each side gets to tell their side of the story and express how it made them feel.
4. Both groups have a chance to come up with a solution.
5. Then together they decide which solution they would prefer.
6. Both groups finish by shaking hands.
Their problem was that Kody wanted to play with the ball and the girls wouldn't let him, so he stole their ball and wouldn't give it back.
They both felt angry, frustrated and upset.
Their solution was to play 3 square instead of 2 square.
Everyone went away happy!!!!
Everyone went away happy!!!!
