Walking on the Footpath

Watch out for sneaky driveways when you're on the footpath. First you have to stop then you have to peer down the driveway. See if any cars are coming.
Be sensible when you're on the footpath.
Stay on the house side when you're on the footpath. Do not go near the kerb!
The oldest has to be on the roadside, they are really sensible.
The youngest person at the front, and the oldest at the back, so everybody can see.
Look where you're going so you don't crash into rubbish bins!

Today, Room 1 children and some parents walked to school together from the Brightwater Hall. We used our Pedestrian Road Safety knowledge to keep ourselves safe as we strolled along the footpath and crossed the roads safely. It was a lot of fun walking to school because we chatted with our friends and were given a badge or bag tag. We are going to do it again next Wednesday too!

Walking to School Again!

Room 1 walked to school today. Mum came with me and I was late but I was just in time. You walked with you're buddy. When we came back to Room 1 we

got a tattoo.      Cole                  
We walked to school two times. We lined up in a big line. I liked walking to school.        Ashton

Sports People

On Wednesday 16 October 2013 Brightwater School children and teachers dressed up in sports clothes because famous people were running to Christchurch. It was for the Halberg Trust. They help sports people who have a disability. Charlie dressed in a rugby player, so did James . Half of the class looked cool. The sports people were actually on bikes when they went past Brightwater School.
Some of us brought a gold coin to school to give to the Halberg Trust.
