Rahina 3 Hongongoi

Monday 3 July


This is message from Andrew brown for our community.

This Thursday 6th July, Auckland Council are hosting a celebratory parade for the Americas Cup win by Emirates Team New Zealand.

The parade is scheduled to begin at 1PM in the central city.

School will be open as usual, but in support of this wonderful win, should you wish to take your children from school to attend the parade, you are welcome to sign them out from the office to attend. This is preferable to keeping them away from school for the whole day. If you are going to pick up your children early it would also be nice to let their teacher know so this can be expected.

Today we had our last day of slime making for our stall tomorrow.We so have it sorted!





As our assessment for inquiry we had to make a poster that showed the slime we were advertising.



Today was our first whanau rotation. They were lovely. the Year 5/ 6 went onto You Tube to do Maori String games. The little ones from Room 4, 19, and 16 did fortune tellers with Maori colours and numbers as their learning.



In room 16 we made...

In room 11 we made...

Ramere 15 Hakihea Friday 15 December What a last fun week we have had. No doubt you will have heard about pool parties, "Go home, Stay Home" , Hampsterball, dodgeball and games such as "Wink murder," "Beat master,""Honey, if you love me then give me a kiss", and 2 truths and a lie". It has been a lovely week to enjoy each others company and have that end of school "feel good" factor. I've loved seeing past pupils and sharing your lovely children. They have been a wonderful class and i am sorry to see each and every one of them go onto bigger, brighter things! Have a wonderful, safe Christmas and treasure all those family moments. These were a few last minute snaps. Our christmas crossword and word search. Team work gets things done. Chess winners! Mates! Mo day! Love the staunch look! My mascara put to good use. You are our Athletic super star!

How to teach children to go from Good to Great learners through the use of such things as :thinking, being determined, having self awareness (how you are impacting on others as well as yourself to learn better) adapting to circumstances, reflecting on what is happening and how you can improve your learning, connect ( how what you alreadu know can help you know something you didn't know or realise, and question ( beactive in your learning by asking, answering, wondering).

Raapa 2 Here-turi-koka Wednesday 2 August Today yoyos appeared at school. They are a great thing to teach the NED concept. Never give up, encourage others to stick at it and be determined to do your best. Spike bought in a different way to achieve these concepts. He is egg sitting "Jimmy". Emma read out her "Mysterious egg" story. Thanks Benji for holding it so she could use voices to explain who each character was. It was rated as a great narrative! Well done Emma! Reading today was "making connections" between two different texts. We had Mrs McKenzie come and watch us learn. We were stunning of course! We learnt that to make connections you had to link ideas together and to ask yourself , " I remember when.. My experience… It reminds me of something I heard or in a movie this happened...  I felt like the character when…. When I read about ….  A book I read was similar to this… I know that because of …&qu
