Kia ora K\u014dwhai wh\u0101nau, <\/p>

We have had a great Week 3 in the K\u014dwhai Hub - our first full five day week! The students have been enjoying continuing with the water play (when the weather has allowed!) and the students who chose not to participate in water play have had a fun time enjoying various art activities. <\/p>

Today was the last day of water play as we start our new inquiry unit topic next week. Our inquiry focus this year is Change and we are starting explore this by looking at historical changes around Canterbury - from the first waka to our shores, to today. <\/p>

To start off our inquiry learning journey about historical Canterbury\u2026<\/i><\/b> Next Thursday, K\u014dwhai children will be boarding the K\u014dwhai Hub Ship, recreating the 1800\u2019s immigration from Europe to Aotearoa New Zealand. Please bring any blankets, pillows, pegs, and ropes that you have to help build the ship\u2019s cabins. Please make sure everything is named. <\/p>

We have started our Kapa Haka lessons for the year with Whaea Cath. We have also been learning about rakau (stick) games in the hub. The students will be creating their own rakau over the coming weeks. We are still looking for newspapers and magazines to help create these - so if you have any spare at home, please send them in with your child. <\/i><\/p>

We have added a doll house into our learning through play activity. If you have any spare toys at home that you no longer use and that would suit imagination play in a doll house, please send them in with your child. <\/p>

Here are some pictures of our learning though play activities this week. <\/p>
