Responsibility ~ Kawenga

Today we learnt about how to show Kawenga in the School Environment by being in the right place, at the right time, doing the right thing (being ready to learn).

We thought about:

-       Staying in bounds -       Using words to solve problems -       Thinking about what I’m doing and being organised so that I’m ready to learn -       Giving a great learning message and listening to all adults Check out some of our ideas: "Give 5" - Marlon "Share" - Ava "Don't tackle" - Rome "Listen to teachers" - Valentine and Mahlee "Don't play at mat time" - Edward " Be kind to plants" - Charlotte "Be safe. Stay in bounds"- Izzy "Hands and feet to yourself" - Tom "Be kind to your friends" - Jessica "Be in the right place at the right time" - Saoirse "Don't whisper when the teacher is talking" - Louie

Trip to Town

We had an amazing Trip to Town. The children loved learning about how early Maori lived (including how they stored food and water). We also spent time in the Botanic Gardens and on the Tram! Thank you to the tamariki who showed Responsibility/Kawenga in the community. A BIG thank you to our parent helpers; you were fantastic. What a fun filled day!

Remember, we are off to Town tomorrow!
