'He waka eke noa' - 'We are all in this together'

Children discussed the qualities that make a successful learning environment and the qualities we want children to display in Room 12. Children created a waka, using mixed media of paint, pastel, dye, coulured  and vivid. Children drew a sketch of themselves. Each paddle showcases a quality we believe is important to create a learning-focused culture.

Visual Mihi

Visual Mihis



Room 12 created these fantastic visual mihis. Once we had learned our school pepeha, we created these wonderful visual mihis. Children had to include:

• A self-portait
• A koru design to represent their family
• Images of things they love
• Flags to represent their culture/country
• School Logo
• Popsicle sticks to represent their school house group
  

Treaty of Waitangi

Room 12 started the year by reading the 'Tree Hut Treaty'
We then had a class meeting and discussed the importance of having a set of class rules that we all agree on.  We all understand and agree with these class rules. We all signed the class treaty to show we agree with these rules.
