Term 4: Week 1 & 2 Whanaungatanga - Reconnecting

 Kia Ora Koutou!

Welcome back to distance learning for term 4! The plan is to take it slow and get back into the routine of school work. I understand that learning at home is not easy for use all, so try and make time to school work, whanau, and getting outside for some fresh air.

The value you will be focusing on this term is Responsible - Kawe Haepapa and how Responsibility may affect change in the environment or in our community. Also we will focus on our wellbeing using Te Whare Tapa Whā.

 

Week 1 We celebrated Nuiean and Cook Island Language week together and some of our akonga produced some great art and cook island donuts.

Wāhanga Tua Toru Wiki Tekau: We have made it whanau!

Kia ora koutou, yes we made it, stayed connected, had some fun and learnt some new knowledge along the way. I am really proud of our tamariki who engaged in meets each day as i have seen real promise and growth in their Te Reo. We all did our best to keep connected and learning.

We celebrated Chinese Language week in week 10 with daily activities and a challenge for the week. Some of our tamariki submitted awesome pieces of mahi. Our Chinese zodiac winners were for the tuakana: Buster and teina: Remy, they both will get 50 tokens towards their Fale. All other entries will recieve 10 tokens each.
I know this lockdown has been a long one but hope all goes well over our holidays and we are back together in our akomanga learning and playing in our kura. We have a big term ahead, so enjoy your holidays and lets celebrate our learning!
