Road Patrol

We have a small group of girls who help out with road patrol and ensuring our tamariki safely cross our busy roads. He mihi nui ki a koutou Sharleze, Chelsea and Jaleel.

Aue, taukiri e!

Ka hinga te rākau kowhai i te pō. Nā te hau a Tāwhirimātea.  

The tamariki did their morning karakia around the rākau. The wood will be used by a carving school so as not to waste it.

                      

Mū Torere Today we learnt how to play mū torere which is a traditional game for māori requiring strategic thinking. If used to be played with the design drawn in the sand and kõhatu as markers. Now we use boards and plastic buttons. We are having a competition in the class and will get a leaderboard going.

  

Lifecards in te reo Māori

Kia ora koutou today we made some postcards using the lifecard app describing things that we like, things we dislike and a comment.

Hakinakina

Yesterday we had some experts from the Canterbury Tennis Club come and show us some skills to help us when playing tennis. Today they visited us again for our second lot of lessons and we have really improved. It was so much fun.

Mahi Põtaka

Today we had a go at making Põtaka using cardboard and foam. These were originally made from wood and were a common game for Māori hundreds of years ago. We had a class competition to see whose Põtaka would spin to longest!
