Our cool koru and kowhaiwhai patterns!



Last term, Te Ngahere and Te Maunga did some artwork about our family using koru and kowhaiwhai patterns to make our artwork. The reason we made our artwork is because we are going to put our artwork in our whare. We were learning to find the meaning of koru and kowhaiwhai patterns. We also made these pieces of artwork because it was for Matariki New Years. It was really fun making the artwork.

Awesome Student Led Confrence






Reflection - On Wednesday Te Ngahere had Student Led Conference. A new improved way to show our learning. We were learning to share our learning with a parent or audience. We made a google drawing and inserted links to show our work. I enjoyed showing our learning because it's new and is a cool way to show our learning. I got National standards on all subjects. I was really pleased with my report and so was my granddad.

Amazing Matariki celebration day!!!!


Reflection - On Thursday last week we had Matariki Day at school. Where were learning about Matariki and the seven stars. Our school had planned lots of cool activities for us. The reason we were celebrating Matariki is because we were sharing our learning about celebrations and cooking some kai from our celebrations. It was a really fun day for all of us.

Our amazing trip to Waitangi!








Reflection - Last week on Tuesday we went to the Treaty Grounds. When we got there our guides introduced themselves and then we went to go to our activities. First my group went to make some kites out of Nikao plants. Next we played this rope game. There was a person that said Maui (Left), Matou (Right) and Ki waenganui (Middle). Then we played another game that would improve our hearing. Then for our last activity we went to explore the trees and some of their healing purposes. We then planted little plants. We hope to see them grow and improve. The reason why we went is because of the Matariki celebrations.
