SPRING IS HERE!

Signs of Spring are everywhere at Nelson Central School. Here are some things we have seen recently:
A Monarch butterfly

Cute ducklings


Isobel's gorgeous lamb 'PIP' came for a visit. As part of our Inquiry topic this term we have been investigating Imports and Exports, looking closely at New Zealand wool. Pip gave us all a chance to experience some wool up close!

SPRING POEMS: COUPLETS

Have you ever seen a new leaf?

Pale green, cool coloured, brand new.

Wicked!

By Lochie

Have you ever seen a lamb?

Bleating baby, soft sheep, sweet white.

Wonderful.

By Isobel

Have you ever seen a foal?

Beautiful creature, trotting madly, spectacular baby.

Outstanding.

By Frankie

Hi Room 13,
Isobel's lamb Pip looks so cute! I wonder if one day her wool will be exported to another country or made into something new?
I hope you've all had a great Term 3. Looks like you've done lots of neat learning :)
