How my house is different compared to a Wharepuni?

How my house is different compared to a Wharepuni

Walt compare my house to a Wharepuni.

A Wharepuni is a place where Maoris seek shelter and sleep there.                                                                           

The same: They both have shelter, They both have doors and windows

Different: The roof goes right down to the ground, The design is completely different

Dear Dion & Harrison

If We were on the first waka that came to New Zealand We would feel alive because We would have found A place for maori people to live and have fun and most importantly learning we would have learned how to fish how to weave clothing and all that stuff and that’s all peps

The Ladder

The Ladder


Me and my class have an unusual way to go to school. We have to climb a colossal ladder. When I climb it I hear branches snapping next to me, rocks falling and hitting the ground and trees rustling. I see birds flying around and trees dancing. I felt like I was going to skid off the huge


ladder. I was starting to feel nauseous as I was climbing the ladder. I wonder if a big gust of wind would push someone off?? Is the ladder stable so I can climb it?

My Hoilday

In the Holidays my cousins and Nanna and Grandad came over from Dunedin for a week. It was awesome. We went for some walks like Hokitika Gorge and some other ones. We also went to the town pool and we played on the inflatables. I fell off a couple times and so did my cousins. We had a really fun time.

matariki

We have been learning about Matariki.
My favorite thing that I have learned is art because it was fun.

Sunday, when we woke up my Nanny said guess what. I said mum had a baby because our aunty said that. The baby is a boy and his name is Wilbur

What will happen if we don't start to care about our environment

What will happen if we don't start to care about our environment

Our environment is not getting cared for anymore and I want to do something about it. I mean this picture (the top right corner) is Cobden Beach Greymouth right now and think of all the animals that could be getting killed right now!!! Our world will soon look like this trash bag earth if we don't do something!! So don't forget to REthink REfuse REduce REuse REcycle and REsponsible disposal! So my main message is to not use rubbish and try to get your school rubbish free then try your town then your country then your WORLD!!!

Science for Summer

Last Friday we sent our water sample back to Summer. Ngahere and Takutai loved collecting the water sample and having a conversation about why water is so important to us and all life.

Tech Famine

Here is a snap of all the children that sent in pictures and videos of the creative things they did during the tech famine. In the end only 11 children sent in pictures and as a result everyone got a prize. The ICT committee then picked their favourite photo/video and that person got two. The ICT committees favourite activity was Harrison reading to his baby brother! 

Science

Summer from Half Moon Bay School in Stewart Island asked us to take part in her science experiment. She sent us a device to collect rain water from our region and a red tube to post it back to her. We are now learning about the water cycle to help us better understand Summer's experiment. 

Shantytown

Lisa from Shantytown has sent an amazing class photo from our time at Shantytown!

Shantytown for Maths Week

We have had the most amazing day at Shantytown for maths week. We played detectives for the day and had to find different clues to help us solve the case of the disappearing items. A huge shoutout to all the parents that came along and helped on the day and to Jude and Lisa at Shantytown for organising the whole day!

Potato Chip Science

What is the Greasiest Chip?

For science today we were trying to find out what the greasiest chip is. We discussed how to complete a fair test and then came up with a hypothesis. Once we were finished our experiment we had a discussion about how we could improve this experiment.
