ANGRY BIRDS!

We have been looking at 3D shapes this week and have made some Angry birds and shelters. There is even some skate boarding action! The kids worked really well together in order to make their designs. They also spoke about what they had made - describing in detail about what was fun, tricky or interesting. There is always a lot of rich language when the kids are allowed to create something usin a main idea or expectation.

Hangi Preparation....

There was an early start this morning to get the Hangi pit organised, the fire lit and getting the kai in so it can cook nice and slowly....

Lots of people came to have a look!

It was great to have lots of whanau support!

Kahurangi Dance Group

What a wonderful start we had to our Whanaungatanga days - with a dedicated group of young people sharing their mahi and knowledge of  local maori myths and legends. They were funny, dramatic and slick. Ka rawe!

The theme this week is about the stories of Maui. The stories come from Peter Gossage's book. We are learning about how these stories can teach us things about life...

Sarge and Mr H got in on the action too!
