Week 10

Hi everyone

We had a wonderful hangi on Friday and the children were pleased to be making use of their woven baskets to eat their kai from. 

This is another busy week.  Monday – Wednesday will be focussed on our Musical Production (practices, Matinee performances and an evening show).  Please ensure your child has their blue/grey clothing and gumboots at school each day.  These will come home Wednesday after school to change into prior to returning for the evening show. 

Be prepared for our wonderful window creation to be revealed!  We have integrated many skills learnt this term....mosaics, measuring, sewing  :-) See you there!  Here's a sneak peek....


On Thursday we will travel by bus to the Star Compass at Waitangi Park.  Please ensure all permission slips are returned and money paid.  We will be back by morning tea time.

Some parents have been asking for ideas to practice Number Knowledge.  This is just one aspect of our maths programme and the blog shows what is taken into account when making judgements about whether your child has met the National Standards required after 3 years at school.  Please take the time to look at the Maths tab at the top of the blog, check the links and sign up for e-ako maths.  This is a fun way to explore number ideas and learn the basics required for solving more challenging problems.

There are some photos and videos of our learning this term.  We have been so busy that I am still working on posting everything, so keep checking in.  It will be up to date by the end of the week!


This week children’s homework is focussed on maths.  Please check the blog, explore maths sites given, and work on the Number Knowledge books.  Have an awesome final week of term and enjoy the holidays.
