Kapa Haka<\/span><\/h3>Last week, we began our K\u014dwhai Kapa Haka programme with Whaea Cath. She will be taking the whole team for kapa haka each Friday so all children can experience kapa haka. We are lucky to be able to provide this opportunity for our students. Here we are in action as we learn the actions to a new karakia.<\/span>

Miniball<\/span><\/h3>A huge thank you goes out to Nathan, Jamie and Mike who kindly offered to coach our three miniball teams this term. Without your support, we would not have been able to enter teams into the Pioneer competition. We very much appreciate the time you have given to encourage, coach and support our tamariki with beginner basketball skills. <\/span>
Due to the term, being cut short, please keep your child's miniball top in a safe place. We need these to be returned to school when it reopens next term.<\/span>

<\/span>

Learning Through Play<\/span><\/h3>We have seen many of the children lifting the level of their learning during our Te Taikario time each day. There has been a huge improvement across the team especially in relation to problem-solving, being creative, working co-operatively and asking questions for inquiry. Here are some of the activities the children have been undertaking.<\/span>

Learning at Home<\/span><\/h3>As Sandy explained in her post earlier in the week, the holidays have been brought forward to the start of next week. We understand that every family will be different and as you settle in to this new normal, schoolwork may be far from a priority for you. Below we have listed some learning activities that are part of the normal weekly routine for the children in our team. If you would like your child to engage in learning over the next few days, the list below could guide you. <\/span><\/span>Prior to school finishing, we set the children up with a login book for them to be able to access their codes from home. Here are some options that your child might like to explore.<\/span>

<\/span>Maths<\/span>
* Study Ladder<\/span>
* Maths Games<\/span>

<\/span>Reading<\/span>
* Epic<\/span>
* Sunshine Online<\/span>
* Ready To Read <\/span>

<\/span>Writing<\/span>
* Google Docs<\/span>
* Google Classroom Literacy<\/span>

<\/span>That's all for now. Please stay safe and enjoy your time at home with your family. We are looking forward to seeing you after the holidays and Easter break via our new online learning programme! Until then...<\/span>

Kia Kaha<\/span>
