A huge thank you to Opua School for helping us out on Monday.  Your hospitality was so very much appreciated.  YOU ROCK!!!!
The mural is underway.  We have a very dedicated whanau member who has offered to scale the ladder and get our OSH areas done, so tamariki will be engaged in filling in the bottom half of this mural shortly.  Big ups to Whaea Marie for all her awhi - it is looking super fantastic. Will keep everyone updated as we go.

Kapa Haka Wananga

Just a shout out to our awesome tutor who spend her time teaching our tamariki their bracket for our Kapa Haka Festival in September.  We are truly grateful to the students, whanau and kaiako for supporting us all during this time, they were spectacular on stage.


Nga mihi nui ki a koutou.


Garden to Table Mahi

Tamariki are busy learning cooking skills as part of the component for Garden to Table.  We are using produce from our gardent o make our class a lovely delicious meal of taco's with mince, cheese, lettuce and raddish from our garden, cucumber and tomatoes.  Another group of tamariki were making the taco shells while the remaining tamariki work out in the garden.

We all come together for our shared kai at lunch time, inviting other kaiako and whanau to join us.  Tamariki love GARDEN TO TABLE.

PASSION WEEK
We have been focusing on laying the pavers down that were completed during passion week end of Term 3.  The images on the pavers are in line with our Whanaungatanga Values of Auaha - Innovation, Haepapatanga - responsibility, Manaaki - respect, Aroha - care and Mahi Tahi - collaboration.  Each child had to do a visual representation of one of these values.  They are very impressed with their mahi and we are hoping they will think about these values each time they skip, hop and jump from one paver to the next.
