Seb's Writing

We have been learning how to persuade in writing.  We wrote letters to Fonterra telling them what we thought of their new 'Milk in Schools' - check out Seb's excellent letter.  You can hear him read it out loud below.  What makes this a great piece of writing?

Zoey and Luke share Maths

We LOVE our new tablets in Room 20! There are so many things we can do with them. The hexagons are using the tablets in their maths to record and explain their maths thinking. Here is Zoey's first go at using this app...

Kindness Boomerang

Last week was kindness week at Waipahihi School.  The whole school spent the week celebrating our motto 'It's Kool to be Kind!".  We watched an amazing video about passing kindness on and we were completely inspired to make our own version.  First we brainstormed lots of random acts of kindness and then put them all together like a jigsaw puzzle to create a storyboard.  The tricky part of filming was everyone remembering their part as the video never stops.  We think we did a pretty good job.  Keep being kind to one another as 'kindness keeps the world afloat'
