Setting up for Term 3

I popped into school on Tuesday so sort out the furniture.  Heston came with me to see Stephanie.  Here are a couple of snaps of him hanging out (very cheekily on the couch) in our classroom.  Look how big he is now!  Have you spent time with your pets this holiday?  




You can also see my husband's arm leaning on Heston, he also came to school with me as his work was closed due to the earthquake.  The air conditioning unit had soaked everything!  Luckily he is back at work now.  Did any of your parents' have to stay at home after the earthquake? How many earthquakes and after shocks have you felt?

  1. Heston is so big! when i saw him last he was a lot smaller.
    My parents had to stay home after the earthquake and it was cool to have them home in the holidays because my parents both start work at 5 am and come back home at 6 pm so don't get to see them much everyday.

  4. WOW!!!! Heston is so BIG!!!. The last time I saw him he was very small. Heston must love the couch. My Mum was thinking of going to work the day of the earthquake. When the earthquake happened my mum decided to stay home from work because it was too dangerous.

  7. The earthquake two weeks ago was cool. We just got back from Willowbank Park.I found a wood block from a fallen tree and I called him Woody when suddenly the ground started moving. I was an EARTHQUAKE. "Get under the doorway" my Mum yelled (it was just like at the earthquake at Te Papa) 6.5 times bigger. I didn't feel any of the aftershocks.

  8. Becca: WOW! Heston is so big last time I saw him he was a little puppy!!
    Robson: WOW Heston is a big dog but is not as big as I thought he would be!

    It would be really cool if Heston came to school again and we could play on the field with him!!! :) :) :)

  11. Hey,
    Your dog is so cute Miss.
    I didn't feel any of the Earthquakes because I was in Australia. I hope everyone is okay though.
    My parents were out of work for 2 days.
    How strong were the Earthquakes?
    Becca is so right! We should have Heston at school again!

  16. Miss Armstrong told us how big Heston is! We think that Heston is probably bigger than all of D1! We had a dog come to visit us this week as well. His name was Baxter. Baxter lives at the SPCA. We have been finding out about why the SPCA are a superhero in our community. Do you know why the SPCA is so important?
