Te Reo weith Whaea Pen

 Te Reo weith Whaea Pen
Whaea Pen came to Room 4 to begin her once a week Te Reo Lesson with Room 4.
We all had a great time with Whaea Pen.  We sang lots of waiata's.  We also went over the Maori alphabet.  Our word of the week is titiro (mai) which means look (this way).  We talked about  what whānau means and we all knew it was our family and friends.  We went over how to say what our name is and how we can reply to a friend.  Whaea Pen read us a story in Maori called, 'Taku Whānau' and we discuss what some of the words meant in English.  We will be learning a mihi soon which is a Maori greeting.

Cultural Week

 Cultural Week
What an amazing week we had, celebrating the rich diversity within our school community.  The students in Room 4 were able to enjoy a range of activities at lunchtime.  Please ask your child what they enjoyed about Cultural Week.
Thank you to all the parents for your support with organising your child's cultural clothing.  They all looked amazing and they were so proud to wear their special clothing. 
We had an assembly on Friday and there were items from all around the world to enjoy.
