We're excited and ready for our 2021 Learning Journey

 How exciting, our 1st day at school for 2021. We are all excited and ready to learn and practise all the great values we have at Kaniere School.  We all look super grown up in our uniforms too. Welcome to Weka Tēina, we are going to have a great year. 

Today we also set up our Magic Learning Carpets. These are going to really help us to be the best learners we can be. Our teacher Mrs Scott said when we are doing all the right things on our Magic Carpets the magic will begin.  We can't wait and either can she!!

Here we are finding the letters to name our Magic Carpets

We are all unique

As part of our  Keeping Ourselves Safe unit we looked at why we are all so unique and special.  We drew a self portrait and wrote about 4 things that we were good at.  We did a fabulous job at completing this task. Check them out......

A visit from Constable Paul

 Constable Paul came to visit and teach us about Keeping Ourselves Safe. We have been learning our phone numbers and our address so we can use this if we are lost or need some help. We have been learning how to say 'stop it, I don't like it", if we are in a situation we don't like and most importantly to tell someone if we don't feel safe. Thanks Constable Paul for coming to visit us and teaching us some really important things.

We went to visit Harold

 Weka Tēina were very excited to be visiting Harold in the Life Education bus. We learnt about Keeping Ourselves Safe when playing in different areas and people that can help us to keep safe.  We enjoyed watching the videos of Harold and his friends and how they were keeping themselves safe too. We even went into space. We enjoyed giving Harold a special wave.

We are at the beach or the lake for writing

We used a picture prompt for our writing this week. We live close to the beach and near a lake so we have all had experiences there. Read some our writing about what we have done there.
