Stepping Out with Constable Lorena


 On Tuesday when Constable Lorena came to our class we learned about road safety for crossing the road. We went group by group to cross the road. Constable Lorena came back to the school again on Thursday to talk about seatbelts and booster seats. We went in Constable Lorena's car to practise putting on seatbelts. Constable Lorena put on the siren and the siren went crazy. Weewoo! Weewoo!

Welcome to Room 7 in 2019 We have had a great first few weeks in Room 7. It's been lovely to meet all the children and their families. We have been focused on getting to know each other and setting up our classroom routines. We have done some learning about how to stay safe in the sun, Waitangi Day, and Chinese New Year. We found out about the traditions involved with Chinese New Year, worked out our zodiac animals, and made dragons. This week we are learning about the Year of the Pig and will be creating lanterns within our team.

There were a lot of smiles!  Then we took our guests back to our classrooms and showed them our learning.  We each wrote a wish for Matariki on a ribbon and attached it as a tail to our kites.  We had offered our guests old fashioned lemonade to drink and star-shaped biscuits that we had decorated for the occasion.  It was a very special morning. Thank you to all those who attended - it meant a lot to the children to have their guests come and shar

Corban Estate Arts Centre

Corban Estate Arts Centre Today Room 7 & 8 went together to the Corbans Estate Arts Centre to take part in a workshop with artist Penny Howard.  We had a great time learning about her art and the stories she tells through her art. The children then spent time planning and completing their own art.  The children were thoroughly engaged in the process and the few hours we were there sped past. And then of course there was the bus ride which was another highlight for us.  We will put our finished art on display in the classroom soon!
