Measuring is Fun!

Join us on our journey to creating, designing and making a letterbox.

First step:  Exploring dimensions - measuring various sized boxes to understand how to use a ruler, measuring tape and recording these measurements in our books.















Goal Setting - Meet the Teachers Evening

Wow what an amazing turn out of parents this evening!
It was so good to see your parents to talk about your goals and discussing the New Zealand Curriculum Standards in both Numeracy and Reading.

Thank you to all those that could make it tonight!

The Writing Corner


Writing is a lot of fun…especially if you have something to write about.
We have been learning to use images to think creatively and write stories.



One fine and sunny morning, my family went to the beach.  The waves were huge and high.  I had never seen such big waves in my life.  So, I took a swim in the shallow waters. As I was taking a dip, I saw this young teenager riding the waves on his surf board.  I was so amazed and wished that one day I would be able to do the same and maybe to compete in competitions and win some medals.
