HNPS 150 Anniversary Launch

150 HNP JUBILEE LAUNCH
Last Thursday all students participated in the launch of the HNP 150 Jubilee which will be held at Labour Weekend 2013. Our guests to help us mark this occasion were Mr Craig Foss and Deputy Mayor, Cynthia Bowyer.
Some students from each class held blue and black balloons to represent the original colours of our school. These balloons were released. Each balloon had a message attached to tell about our Jubilee. Registration information will be available on our school website in the next few weeks.

Enjoy some of the writing produced by the children after the event.


Guess what!
It is nearly Havelock North Primary's 150 anniversary.  There was a remote control helicopter with a camera All of the balloons looked like a flock of birds.  There was a balloon in the tree.  It was funny! By Callum

 Today is the day.  Soon the school is 150 years old.  8 people from every class got to release a black or blue balloon.  Me, Jess, Callum, Jack, Zoe C, Lachlan, Fionn and Leo.  Those are the 8 in my class.  I released a black balloon and Jess did too.  I wonder where the balloons went!  If you didn't release a balloon you would have watched them fly.  The balloons were easy to fly away.  Brianna had to watch it.  After that my class ran around the field.

When the balloons were flying I thought they might have been to heaven or out of space.  There are 150 balloons.  When the helicopter flew up it looked like there were aliens in the helicopter. It looked cool.

Today is the day I get to watch the balloons get launched into the air.  The balloons are blue and black.  Callum, Jess, Zoe C, Fionn, Lachlan, Holly, Jack and Leo lauched the balloons.  My school is almost 150 years old.  Good big balloons!  By Violet

Wow!
It is HNPS 149th anniversary.  150 people at our school let the balloons go.  I thought they were all going to pop when they let them go because they could of got stuck in a tree.  There was a little helicopter in the sky.  It was taking pictures of everyone holding a balloon. By Louie
