Samoan Language Week...Making Lei's

Miss Henderson (The student teacher) taught us all about the Samoan culture. She explained that lei's are used to welcome people. We made our own lei's in class.
First we had to color in the special flowers and cut them out. Then we had to thread the flowers and straws onto the string. We knew how to do this because it was just like the patterns we have been looking at in Maths. The pattern went flower, straw, flower, straw....

Our student teacher Miss Henderson is teaching us about Samoan dancing...

Class Mass

We had class Mass today with Room 5. All the children did a wonderful job at singing, saying their prayers of the faithful and doing the offertory. Thank you to all of the parents and grandparents that came along to help support us.

Please read our lavalava stories.

Dunedin Street Art

This afternoon, Aroha (a parent of our school) came along to talk to us about the Dunedin Street art, as she has been involved in planning and painting some of the murals. Room 1 got very excited when they could recognise some of the murals that had already seen in town. This was a great start to our new Inquiry for this term "Art around us".

The letter of the week!

What do you do in an emergency?

Today Constable Ross talked to us about what we need to do in an emergency. He taught us how to dial 111 and what information we need to know to tell the operators. We practiced in class with Constable Ross's phone.

We're off to see the Wizard!

St Joseph's Cathedral School was treated to the production of Kavanagh College's "The Wizard of Oz". We watched the whole show and we all thought it was outstanding. Well done to all people involved!
