Today we did some juicing. We got some grapefruit from the school tree and we used an old juicer to squeeze the juice out. It was an amazing machine. Next we used a winding juicer and juiced some grapefruit with it. Last of all we juiced some apples and carrots in an electric juicer and this worked like magic. Then we drank the juice.

Room 1 does cooking every Tuesday with our teacher aides. This week we made gingerbread men. We cut them with cutters and then we decorated them with icing.

For the Canterbury earthquake Tomarata School had a red and black day. Room 1 participated well and had a great time. We all wore red and black, we also made a gold coin donation but some people brought more.
