Duffy Certificate

Today, at our live stream assembly the prefects did a "shout out." to students who have been awesome at school this week. Quincy got a certificate and a book. Quincy likes Lego stories and can't wait to read his book with his mum. (Dictated to the teacher)

Memory Game

In class we have played a cup memory game and during the lockdown period I made a similar game and recorded it for the children to watch and play at home with their siblings and parents. This game helps us with our memory as you have to focus on the object, you have to think hard and remember as well as respect each others turn. Cullai enjoyed watching this video and I hope he had a go at playing this game with his sister.

Our classroom

Our classroom looks different. We have to sit away from each other to do our work and eat our lunch.

Going for a walk

Every morning Mrs. Fester and Mr. Fester like to go for long walks in their area. One Morning Mrs. Fester took a video of things she noticed on her walk and created an activity about this for our home learning site page. Children were asked to notice 5 things and write or draw this on some paper. Cullai watched the video. He noticed some things in the the video however was curious to find out what the other things were. So Cullai and his mum went exploring.

                                                                   Mrs. Fester's Video

Cullai was intrigued by these
beautifully carved Maori Statues.

It turned out to be an adventurous day for both
Cullai and his mum.
