Our Papatuanuku Table

We have been collecting items from nature. What how our table changes during the seasons. Some students from our class sorted the items into categories. 

What is on your table? What precious taonga do you find in nature?

A peaceful classroom

We worked in small groups to come up with ideas about what a 

peaceful class looks like, sounds like and feels like. 

We want our class to be a peaceful class. 

These are the things we will remember so we can be peaceful. 

What would you add to create a peaceful classroom?

Pepeha

This is what we use for our pepeha. It tells us our families names and where we come from. 

We asked our families to help us and we are learning to say our pepeha.

Day One - 2018

We are standing near the bus. We sat on the bus and pretended to drive the bus! Some of us had never been on the bus before. 

We like swimming with other classes. When we went in, it was cold. We accidentally splashed our teacher, Hine.

We drafted up our class agreement. We are calling it a class treaty. 

We did some maths learning in the library.
