ICT Learning Expo

Here are our Senior Buddies teaching children from other schools how to use the ipads.

We were learning how to write a programme for the robots.


It was exciting working with the robots.

Movie Making was another activity to experience on the day.

Tagxedo was another great learning activity.

Thank you to the organising school - Peninsula Primary - for running such an enjoyable and worthwhile day.

Multicultural Festival

Yesterday, the Seniors went to Corban's to perform kapahaka.  First we got dressed in our costumes.  Next, we went on the bus to go to Corban's.  We had to wait until our turn. 

I felt nervous when it was our turn.  Then we went on stage to perform.  I felt proud because there was a lot of people watching us. 

Last we were sitting high up so we could watch other schools perform.

On our way back to school on the bus, the driver went over the bumps.  It made us bounce up high. 

I had a good day.

Ipads in Room 9

We really enjoy working with ipads in Room 9.  We mainly use them to support our Literacy Learning.  We make animations.  We video ourselves to improve our fluency in reading.  We work on different apps to improve our alphabet and sight word knowledge.  We enjoy listening to interactive books.

A Wobbly Tooth

I had a wobbly tooth a long time ago and it was uncomfortable BUT at last I got it out and I got $1 and I spent it on a ball.  I felt happy because it was new.

Wobbly Tooth by Zachariah

Today I was sitting next to Rico and he pulled his tooth out.  Then Kome put his hand up and said that Rico had a wobbly tooth that came out.  Then Mrs Begum gave Rico a tissue so he can stick it in his bag and he went back on the mat.  Then I asked him if it was sore but he said, "No."  I felt happy because Rico's tooth came out.
