 ART AND ENTERPRISE:

Wow!  Term two has absolutely whizzed by because of all the exciting things that we have had to do.  “Art and Enterprise has been our topic and it has been a real blast working with the divine and talented Ms. Caroline McGlinchy.  The senior classes focused on photography for our art project and we hope you enjoyed the culmination of all our genius and hard work on display at the HVS Art Exhibition!  Other works of art that the children chose were also on display.

 

Here are just three of the examples of the stunning photography we took that was on display!

  

Yeehah!!!

TI KOUKA RECYCLING:

We have also been modifying our class Environmental Responsibility because of the way the WCC will collect it from schools and early childhood centres.   There is a one-month trial going on which commenced on June 14 and will finish on July 15. 

 

The WCC are using some new green recycling bags and they are asking schools to use these to collect paper, plastic and cans.  They will collate how much recycling has been collected to see if the amounts justify collection on a regular basis.

 

We will keep you posted on the outcome.

The school holidays are coming up and we hope that you have a fantastic break with your children, keep safe and warm and we look forward to seeing you fresh and ready for a brand new term three! Yippee! 

KIA ORA FROM TI KOUKA 2011

2011 has arrived and I was  very excited to meet my new class after the Christmas school holidays.  There are 31 children in the class this year and they are a fantastic bunch of people.  They are friendly, fun-loving and hard-working too!  We have been very busy with the class sitting lots of tests to see where they are at with their knowledge and skills in various areas.  We have played lots of fun games and we have also done lots of interesting activities, stories and artwork. 

I have a Class Release Day every Thursday to catch up on some other duties, so Ti Kouka have the pleasure of being taught by our very own Jos Abernethy, who is an integral part of our wonderful school.  Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions about anything at all.
