Pedal Ready - Wednesday group

Our first group participated in Pedal Ready today.  We had heaps of fun, learned heaps, and played some great games.

We learned about bike indicating and showing others we are about to stop, how to do an emergency stop, how to use the gears on our bike, checking our helmet and bike to make sure it's safe, how to ride slowly, and how to ride in a group.

1000 cranes!

We have been learning about Sadako Sasaki, and Hiroshima Peace Day.  We have folded an amazing 1000 cranes since last Monday!  A Japanese legend says that 1000 cranes folded will make a wish come true.  

Mr Webby came in to learn how to fold a crane - and his crane was our 1000th.  Penny and Jared were amazing kaiako!

Here is our 1000 cranes!

We came up with some possible wishes, and then had a vote.  Peace for the world was the overwhelming winner.
