Get wise with money

Jayden from ASB taught us how to be super heroes with money.
It is important to save some and spend some.
Think of a safe place to save your money.  Maybe a bank, a money box or jar.
There are coins and notes.  You can buy more with the notes.
Talk about saving money with your family.

Powhari

At the conclusion of our study on Maori culture and customs we held a powhari at school today.
This showed us what would happen if we visited a marae.
Mrs Riley organised the event but it was the prefects who conducted the powhari.
We are all very proud of what you did.
You showed respect and for some had to speak in a language which was not their own.

Hip hop off

At the end of the hip hop lessons we had a school hip hop off.
It was great to see the progression from room 1 to room 12.
Hip hop is a great way to exercise.

Matariki

It is time to celebrate Matariki.
There are many events happening.
What do you know about Matariki?
We have talked about the stars, planting, kai (food), kites and spending time with whanau (family).

Writing from talking

We are learning how to write from what we talk about.
The more we talk about things the more ideas we have to write on.
Talk with your family.
