BOOK WEEK!

To celebrate 'Book Week' we dressed up as a book character and held a fun assembly.
The week was a great chance to celebrate our favourite books and the joy they bring us.😊

Speech writing

We have been working hard writing and practicing speeches recently. Here are a few pictures of this process. We will be ready to present our speeches next week. Mahi pai ruma tekau ma ono!

S.O.S. = SHOWING OUR STRENGTHS !!!

In room 16 we have an especially special learning session each week. 

We call it S.O.S - Showing Our Strengths.

This is a time when we choose a learning area we want to focus on. This could be an area we feel is a personal strength or talent. Sometimes we may choose to have a go at something new that we haven't tried before. We LOVE this part of the week and enjoy showing others the results we produce. SHOWING OUR STRENGTHS !!!

Bharath and Sam really love showing their strengths on the bongo drum.

Some of us have learned to play songs together like a band.

In this S.O.S session Isabelle, Ridha and Mila were researching cultural icons to use in their artworks.

We have started to write a song!
Navneet and William having a go - 'karawhuia' = give it a go!

We get satisfaction from looking after our school environment. Hana and Valerie showing their strengths in the African garden.
