Mataariki, Fried Bread

Hi Parents and Caregivers, Today we made fried bread for our celebration of mataariki. We used scone mix and water. After the dough was mixed together we placed it in the fry pan with oil. The teachers did the cooking for us. Then we rolled the bread in cinnamon and sugar. Yum yum!!! Thank you, Room 20

Caterpillar legs

Hi Parents and Caregivers, Today in class we were learning to recognise numbers written down. We made caterpillars with legs from pegs and places a numeral in the box. The numeral matched the number of peg legs we had on our caterpillar. Thank you, Room 20

Matariki

Hi Parents and Caregivers, This week we have been learning about Matariki in class and at music. Please ask your child about Matariki and they will be able to tell you all about the 7 stars and how Matariki is celebrating and preparing the ground for the coming year. In class we have made some masks for the schools parade next Thursday to celebrate Matariki (Maori New Year). Thank you, Room 20
