Welcome Colin/ Mr SuperElvis

On Friday Colin arrived for Discovery with an old printer for us to take apart. It was a huge hit with several enthusiastic children spending an hour getting stuck in with screw drivers, pliers and elbow grease.He even cleaned up at the end. We LOVED it. Thanks Colin. Anybody else out there who's keen to come in and share the fun on Fridays?

Talofa Radio

Miss Heatley has taken over Talofa Radio this year with some fantastic Year 6 presenters. Look at these incredibly brave Tuis who read their writing out loud on radio to the whole school. Suraiyah, Jarvis, Alexis-Sia and Catie you are amazing.

Discovery Day in action

We love Discovery Days, this weeks theme was Easter and Olivia, Maggie, Joe, Isabel and Reuben's Gran came into teach us how to make harekeke crosses. If there is anyone else who would like to come in one Friday to share an activity with us we would LOVE it.

The marshmelloe bunnies/ dogs/ mice/ elephants were a great hit. They did take quite a lot of concentration to make but very quick to eat.

Easter Play

On Wednesday we had our whole school Easter play. It was so lovely to see the church full with our school community joining us. Tui and Ruru joined together to demonstrate the first two Stations of the Cross. We were all wonderful in performing our different parts and is a very reflective and meaningful way to remember Jesus and the Easter message.

St Patrick's Day

Tui Class and the rest of the school got into the spirit of St Patrick's Day. We all wore green mufti to raise funds for the people who have lost their homes in Fiji. we had green jelly and ice cream as well but we ate it so fast Ms Wasson couldn't get a photo. The school raised over $250 which is awesome.

A Friendly Visit from our Public Health Nurse Helen

On Tuesday Helen came to Tui to teach us some valuable ways to look after our health. We talked and practiced blowing our noses and washing our hands. Hopefully we remember to take these tricks home with us to use too.
