 We are learning to form letters correctly using proper shapes and sizes. 











Kawa of Care

We have Kawa of care sessions with Phil every Tuesday. This is all about looking after iPads in class. Here are some tips to take care of them.


                                                            Hug hold when you are walking


Hold it with both hands


Put your iPad on a safe surface



Hug hold when you are listening so you don't get distracted by what's on the screen




Matching and sorting activities

First week back, we learned to match and sort. For that, we had to find similarities and differences. We found matching letters, teddy bears and numbers. Here are some photos of us in action.















Fitness in West Class

We start the day with breakfast followed by buddy reading and then back in class with yoga or jump jam.
Here is a snippet of our yoga poses.









West Class artist :Rae West

A huge welcome to all our whanau and tamariki to 2023. This year Room 1 is named after the New Zealand artist Rae West.

Rae West began her career as a graphic designer based in Sydney, developing an eye for composition and design. Rae eventually returned to New Zealand and moved towards fine art, following in the footsteps of her grandmother who she had watched as a child painting and creating. Rae experimented with resin and inks and quickly developed a distinct style.
Her works pulse with the kinetic freedom of fluidity and light. 
She uses multiple veils of pigment, resin and ink, which blend and react against each other creating beautiful forms and textures. She is based just outside Napier, in a sea-side village called Haumoana.


Fruit Rockets

We have been learning about different food groups and eating a balanced diet. Fruits have minerals and vitamins that is very good for our health. So we designed our own fruit rockets and then made them too. Here are some photos of our design and the finished fruit rockets.




















Patterns with shapes

We had lot of fun making patterns using one shape, and then we had a go at making patterns with two shapes. Did you know that you can arrange the shapes in different ways to make a pattern ? The most popular one was making a circular pattern.
