Well done Christian!

This week I am very proud to say that I had a very hard time trying to choose just one student to award the Merit Certificate to during our whole school assembly. The recipient from room 19 was chosen because he demonstrated all of  our 'learning together' foci during our Garden To Table time.

Celebrating our focus- Learning together.

Every odd week, all of the Kauri classes gather together to have a team assembly. They are always fun and a GREAT opportunity for us all to acknowledge some of the amazing learners we have in our classes. Each teacher can award two students a Duffy caught being good certificate and those lucky students can select a book to keep.


This week, Faavesi and Kingston received Room 19's certificates because they have both been very focused on their learning and always help others.

EXCELLENT work boys, Keep it up!!!!!

Garden to table (G2T)

We had our first Garden to Table session for 2017 today. Our class was split into 2 groups; 1 in the kitchen and the other in the garden. Here are some photos from the garden group today.
  

The garden group explored our school gardens and learnt about a lot of things to do with vegetables and flowers.

This is a very nice focus to begin with as our overall theme for the year is 'Kotahitanga' - unity, solidarity, togetherness. If you would like to know more about our learning theme, please ask your child or you can visit our class.
