Things I Treasure Art - Update

Look how amazing our art is turning out.  We have finally managed to get a few of them finished and boy, are we proud with how they are looking!!

Whakanui Week 2, Term 1

Today we had our second whakanui (assembly).  We were hosted by Paua who shared their learning about the Titiri o Waitangi (the Treaty of Waitangi).  We got to hear about the early history of New Zealand - it was very informative.

Big congratulations to Sefita who has obviously made a good impression around the school.  Not only did he win a Kia Kaha award, he was also this week's Principal Award winner!  His commitment to learning and being a role model in the playground and class make him a deserving winner.  We all aim to be like Sefita.

Touch Training Today

Today we started our touch training with Coach Malakai from Counties Manukau Sport.  We ran through a number of drills to help us with skills that we will need to play touch.
We practised rolling the ball, passing the ball and catching the ball.  We needed to remember we have to pass backwards because forward passes aren't allowed in touch rugby (or any rugby for that matter).
We really enjoyed our time today (even though it got really hot in the hall!!).  We are super excited for next week!!

When I Dream

When I dream, I dream about what comes next.

When I think, I  think about what will  happen when I  leave school.

When I feel, I feel like I'm in heaven.

When I hug, I hug like it my last hug.

What I wish, I wish what would happen when there is no school.

When I imagine, I imagine if there are going to be another war.

That’s what makes me the person I am today.
