To promote walking to school, our School Council organised a walking car day. Children were asked to make a walking car at home, out of recycled materials,  and bring it to school and it would be judged for creativity, the message it gives and we would have races. What a lot of creative people we have in our community.

We had many activities during our school Book Week. Guest readers from the community visited to share books with small groups of children. Danny, the children’s librarian from Lower Hutt Library talked to the Juniors about the library and showed us some amazing Pop-up books that are at the library and then he read us some very funny books. Sometime during each day the bell would ring telling us to Drop Everything And Read. (DEAR). We finished with a “dress up as your favourite book character" parade. Also running this week was a Book Fair at school held by the Fons.
