Kia ora e te wh\u0101nau m\u0101,<\/span>What a lovely two weeks back at school for Term 2. Our tamariki have settled in so well with the routines, we have loved the big smiles and warm greetings each day. We would like to send a big thank you to our parents and caregivers as you have made such a difference by setting your child\/ren up for success in the morning transition. He waka eke noa - We get there together!<\/span>Cross Country<\/b><\/span>A quick reminder that Cross Country will take place on Tuesday, 14th May. The junior races will start from 2.15pm on the field. Please ensure that your child\/ren will have their drink bottles, running shoes, and pants, shorts or leggings appropriate for running. They have the option to wear their house shirt.<\/span>Our tamariki have been training hard for this event and shown our value 'We Love Challenge'. Ka mau te wehi - way to go!<\/span>School Photos<\/b><\/span>Thank you to our wh\u0101nau and caregivers for preparing your child\/ren for school photos. Everyone came to their photo session with great pride and a big smile. We are excited to show their photos to you when they are available.<\/span>Naming Uniforms and Belongings<\/b><\/span>Please make sure that your child's clothing items, drink bottles, and lunchboxes are properly named. We have had quite a few tamariki losing their tops, jerseys and shoes. You are welcome to have a look in the hub and at the lost property after school should any of their belongings have gone missing.<\/span>Paper Making and Recycling<\/b><\/span>Last week, Sarah and Quynh's homegroups had a great time experimenting with paper making! They learnt about the value of recycling, and how used paper can have a second life.<\/span>

\"We made paper out of used bits of paper.\"<\/div>
\"It was tickly and weird.\"<\/div>
\"It was squishy!\"<\/div>
\"We put our hand on the bit of paper.\"<\/div>
\"We kept on pushing it.\"<\/div>
\"Mine was like a pancake!\"<\/div>
\"I got heaps of little paper and squished it and we leave it for 24 hours.\"<\/div>
\"I liked pushing it, it was so fun.\"<\/div>
\"I made a love heart.\"<\/div>
\"I loved squishing the paper!\"<\/div>

Learning Through Play<\/b><\/div>

<\/div>
We had scarf dancing as one of the options for LTP last week. Our tamariki had so much fun following and creating movements. Also, a big thank you to one of our parents for donating baby dolls, they were the most popular option during LTP.<\/div>
