This week we had some fun dressing up for Book Character Day. We had been learning about narrative stories and writing so we dressed up as our favourite character.
Caroline, our teacher, was Grandma McGarvey!

Fun times at Discovery Time!

We are having some great fun during Discovery Time. We have been focusing on developing our social skills to ensure everyone is feeling included into games. Last Friday Neroli was soooo pleased and proud of us because throughout the entire session everyone played cooperatively and happily together!

Weather permitting we will be swimming on Monday for sure! Please keep your eye on the whiteboard for other swimming days. Usually at the end of the year we have a Kowhai Big Day Out. However this year we are going to have a Big Day In! We have some very special treats in store. We have planned this for Monday 16th December. More details will follow. Have a happy and safe week!

Parihaka Picnic Tea
On Tuesday evening the weather held out for us to gather to remember and talk about the events of Parihaka. There was some fabulous art work on display, speeches, drama and musical performances. I felt extremely proud of the children showcasing their knowledge and skills.
