Team 3 is Awesome!

This week we share our story with the school on our Pt England News Network. We wanted you to see it also. 

We hope you enjoyed our movie. 

Thank You to Niah for the amazing voice over. 

Our First day

 Today we had our first day back at school for 2022. For some of us this was the first day back for ages has we had not returned after to 2021 Covid 19 Lockdowns. 

Our First day was fulled with happy times. 

We met our teachers

We made Lego Art

Solved some maths problems

We can't want for the rest of the year!

Siapo Art

 This week we made Siapo Art.

This is Niah's recount about what we did: 

On Wednesday we did Siapo art. First Mrs Carruthers gave us paper. Then we have to make big petals. So we drew big patterns in it: next I made the big patterns. After I showed it to my teacher. I coloured it in with crayons. After you went outside to dye my art with my friends. Finally my art was finished, it looked good. 

Whale Tales

Our school is lucky enough to be designing a whale tail for the art trail. It is a trail to remind people what treasures the Bryde’s Whale are. We had to plan and a design for the tail and only one could be choose. 

Room 23 decided that we needed to have a reminder about the Bryde’s Whale in our classroom so we created Crayon and dye whale tails for our walls. 

Our First Photography Lesson

This term we are learning Photography with Ms West. Today we had our first Creative Space lesson for the term. We learned about having the subject clear in our picture. 

We used lego people as our subjects. 

Have a look at some of the amazing photos we took. 

Our Class Treaty

 We have been learning about being kind and responsible members of a classroom. As part of our learning we made a Treaty. Our Treaty has three value much like the Treaty of Waitangi has the three Ps, Protection, Partnership and Participation. 

We value Respect, Responsibility and Relationships. 

Have a look at our Treaty:
