Term 1 Week 1

Term 1 Week 1

 

                         This week did a Taonga Hunt.

We had to hunt around the school for some Owairaka Schools treasures.

We had a lot of fun looking for our school treasures.

Each treasure had a letter, when we put all the letters together it spelt;

                              'In Our Backyard'

This is our overarching school theme

Play-Based Learning

On  Fridays we join up with Room 5 to read our poems, buddy read, explore and discover together.

We really enjoyed this time with Room 5.

Writing

We did some writing about our holiday. We have published it and it is up on the wall. 

Please come in and have a look. The children are very proud of their work.
