Student Led Conference

On Tuesday, Te Ngahere created a google drawing for our Student Led Conference. In our google drawing we had to put in maths, reading, writing, inquiry and art. First, Mrs Pou gave my mum my report and we sat on the couch and looked at my report, my mum thought it was a good idea to do some maths at home. Then I showed her the google drawing and all the work I’ve been doing.

Matariki Celebration Day

Last Thursday, we had a Whanau day at the school to celebrate Matariki Day. We did so much fun things like Planting Trees, art and we had loads of fun games out on the field. We also had a delicious shared lunch. It was a really fun day for everyone.

Waitangi Treaty Grounds

Last Tuesday Paihia School walked to the Waitangi Treaty Grounds. We did this fun activity it was called Manu aute. The coolest activity I liked was the kite making, my buddy was Missy, we just started straight away, Missy would do the weaving and I would do the tying, it was so fun. It was so fun and exciting walking to the Treaty Grounds and learning things I never knew about, I hope we get to do it again next year.

Fidget Spinners

Last week Te Ngahere and Te Maunga made some Fidget Spinner art. We were given an A3 piece of paper. We were learning to use, all the space on the A3 piece of paper, we also had to use crayon and dye to do our fidget spinners.

Making Ice Cream

On Friday Te Ngahere made some Ice Cream, we made some Ice Cream because the whole of Te Ngahere got 100% in our learning plan. Then on Monday the class had to write a recount about how to make ice cream. We had to work in pairs for the Ice Cream, and my buddy was Lucy.

Tim Tipene

   Last Thursday an Author called Tim Tipene came to Paihia School. What I really enjoyed about Tim Tipene was that he was really funny and he had heaps of expression while he was reading one of his books and he told us how he became an author. I only know 3 of his books. One of them are Taming the Taniwha, Hinemoa Te Toa and Bullies of Warriors.

General Knowledge

       
Last week I was learning to find information about our chosen country. I think we did well at using map skills to find locations, read the text to make connections with different countries and cultures and scan the text for key information . My group and I really enjoyed looking for information and finding out stuff that we never knew before. Thank you
