Term 3

Wow! Term 3 has gone really fast. We started in Room 7 with 10 children and now have 15. We've had a great time and have been very busy. Here's a video of some of the activities we've enjoyed this term.

World Literacy Day

Last Tuesday it was World Literacy Day. We had a great time dressing up as book characters and having a parade. The real highlight was having parents come and read us stories from their cultures. We heard stories in Korean, Mandarin, Tongan, Nuiean, Hindi and English. Thank you to the parents who did a great job reading (and in some cases acting out!) their stories. Thanks also goes to the fabulous teachers Mrs Irshad, Miss Morrison and Mr J for organising such a great day.

What Am I?

We've been learning about sea creatures in Room 7. We thought we'd test your knowledge. Have a look and see how many animals you can work out from our clues.

Penguins

The Giraffes reading group read the book Hoiho's Chicks and were keen to share what they have learned about penguins. You might like to share what you know about penguins in the comments box.

Hat Parade

The children of Te Ako Kowhai love to design and create things so we decided to have a hat day. All the children were busy planning and then making their hats. Miss Morrison, Mrs Scott and Mrs Bell were on hand to help with the cutting and decorating and Mrs Kung had the tricky job of judging the best hats. Well done everyone and thanks to Miss Morrison and Mrs Scott who supplied the photos.
