Welcome to Term 4.

 

 

We welcomed Term 4 by celebrating Diwali (the Hindu festival of lights). Room 24 enjoyed reading a book about Diwali, made Rangoli art and also made a Indian milk sweet.
Yummy! says Timothy.

Creatures Great and Small.

We had so much fun this term, learning about Creatures Great and Small. Room 24 chose their own animals of interest to research on. They came up with their questions and found information through the books in the library, internet and from others. Tino Pai Rm 24  biologist, I enjoyed reading your charts and information books.

Maori Language Week.

Inventors Day Celebrations !

To celebrate our learning about Inventions, we had Inventor's day where kids dressed up as inventors and their whanau came along to see all their cool inventions. Room 24 made boats, planes, cars and telephones. We have had so much fun with making all our cool inventions and we would like to thank our lovely whanau for their support.

Matariki Celebrations!

Towards the end of June, Room 24 celebrated Matariki ( The Maori New Year). We learnt a new Maori waiata and dance about Matariki. We also made kites and had such a fun time flying them.
Happy Matariki everyone!

Congratulations to room 24 poets.

Thank you parents for helping your Tamariki practise their poems at home.  All of the kids did really well with their poems. Most of them memorised their poems and were able to say it confidently in front of an audience. Grace Manuela won the Gold award for the Totara whanau. Well Done Grace! 

Elsa won a participation award. You are all amazing poets Rm 24 kids,  Keep up the awesome work.
