We have some fantastic student-driven learning at home.  Be encouraged to continue learning.  Many of you at our Google-Meets are sharing responsibilities around your whare - that's learning applications.  Conquer small hills so you are better equipped for the higher ones ahead. In reference to our Pakirehua (Inquiry), here's a suggestion by the majority on our Google-Meet earlier today. Remember to work with what's already in the pantry.  Blog your baking experience! Refer to the poster below also if your whanau/aiga/kainga can do with a bit of assistance or awhina during these times! Our next Google-Meet is at 9:30 am tomorrow. See you then !

  Hope you are keeping well.  I know a number of you and your kainga have had your Covid vaccinations - cheers to you for your bravery!  There are a number of situations where you'd easily express your thoughts via a GIF - please blog your experience and share with us. In reference to your hauora, what games (eg. card/board) or leisure activities (eg. family walks, bike-riding etc.) are you participating in? Blog a GIF or a meme to express a reaction from a couple of those activities. The KiwiCan team sends their aroha and shared a couple of 'Conquer A Challenge' activities with us: Remember to join our class Google-Meet tomorrow at 9:30am.  Bring any questions you have from the week's learning activities.   Bring a game suggestion we can all participate in as a class.  See you tomorrow!

I look forward to your creativity, sense of humour and digital savviness!  Have fun and remember to blog!

Covid-19 Alert Level 4 - what this means for our Room 10 Learners Here's hoping that you are all keeping well and safe at home.  It is crucial we are looking after each other in our immediate bubbles.  Let's all do our bit to keep everyone safe while the country is in lockdown.   Check our school website regularly for the latest updates.   Take time to read the digital newsletter from Raina - our school Principal At this stage we are unable to send out learning material hardcopies.   So have fun planning a day of learning and helping out around home.  For a few who have access to own device, this might be a brilliant time to work through outstanding tasks from Mathematics, Reading/Vocabulary, Writing and Topic.   Also, take advantage of educational online platforms that are shared on our class websites. Aim to spend 2-3hours of online learning in the first part of the day (as if you are following our Class T3 Timetable). ...

Kia Ora.  Kia Orana.  Malo e lelei.  Ni Sa Bula.  Namaste.  Mauri.  Talofa Lava My name is Peta Leitu and I have the privilege of working with our beautiful Years 7&8 whanau in Room 10 since the beginning of Term 3.

Gratitude has been huge on our list of learnings thus far.  For instance, eating our healthy lunches and remembering how these have been prepaid for.   Eating and remembering the less fortunate. As we endure the cold months in the third quarter of th...
