Week 7 Blogpost

Kia ora e te whānau 

Well week 7 has just flown by! Firstly, we thank the children of Hōpara for coping whilst Mr B has been away sick and while Ashley was having eye surgery. Let's hope next week is a bit more settled! This week we had our second round of our inquiry rotation, we are absolutely loving the learning and pondering questions that are coming from these sessions.

Learning conferences: Over the coming weeks we will begin to prepare your children for these meetings, we look forward to sharing their successes so far this year. Please see times and days in the calendar below. 

P4C: A few weeks ago we read the book "The Barnabus Project" - In a world built for Perfect Pets, Barnabus is a Failed Project, half mouse, half elephant, kept out of sight until his dreams of freedom lead him and his misfit friends on a perilous adventure. From this book we discussed the key concepts/themes. We then designed our own "perfect pet", these pets had to incorporate features that would protect and enhance their humans mental health/wellbeing. How amazing do they look?!!








Playing on the field: If children wish to play on the field at morning tea and lunch a change of clothing is required. Thanks for your support with this…good luck with the washing!!!😂👍
