This Week in Hopara

Hōpara Times

The children have finalised their newspaper reports using the online Canva tool. These reports have used the information from their whānau interview. They are a fascinating read and we will be collating them all into one newspaper.

Team Tūhura and Hōpara Scratch

Alex and Oskar planned Scratch workshops and delivered these to both teams on Wednesday. They surveyed the team to find out that Broadcast and Receive was the next skill that everyone wanted to focus on. The workshops were a great success and most children completed their Scratch game.

Tennis

On Thursday Hopara took part in our annual tennis tournament. There was some wonderful Rallies from multiple students, Ben stockton and Jemmah Gaston taking the honors. Honorable mentions goes to Jackson Clark, Bradly Cowles, Louisa Miller and Mila Chamberlain.
