Independent Learning

It is such a joy to see children coming to school having taken their learning from the day at school home and continued to learn! Jack chose the book "Our Butterflies" and when he read it at home with mum he made his own red butterfly and could not wait to show me the next day!

Keep up the great work Jack, this is awesome!!

Room 2 have been learning this also so yesterday Mrs B brought in Kumara and stuffing for Room 1 and 2 to try some of the yummy things that you find in a Hangi.

Art Gallery Trip

The Art Gallery trip is always a highlight of the Year for St Joes, we had a focus on patterns for our trip as we have been looking at patterns in Maths. We explored the art works with patterns, made patterns with telescopes, made patterns with spare parts and then headed into the art studio to make pattern pieces of art which can be viewed in Room 1.
