World Down Syndrome Day

Today, we are celebrating World Down Syndrome Day at OIS.  We are blessed to have the super special Jaime in our class this year.
Room 10 made a video to share with the school about what down syndrome is and about Jaime.  Please watch and leave us a comment...

I AM HOPE

On Thursday, we have the very special Mike King visit our school as part of his 'I AM HOPE' tour of New Zealand.  He entertained us and shared his life stories.  He also told us some very strong messages to think about in our lives when we are having a hard time.

This week, Room 10 kids are going to share their thoughts about Mike King's visit in the comments below.  Check them out and add a comment yourself.
