Covid - 19 Learning From Home

On Wednesday 25th of March lockdown began. Wow! Nearly 2 

months of being locked inside a house with 6 loud people! Learning 

from home was quite good from my side of things. Not just because 

I got to sleep in for an extra hour, but also because I got to control 

where I could sit, eat etc. I would much rather be at school. It's 

better when you can see people other than your family. How was 

your lockdown learning experience? 

Our teachers gave us priorities to do during lockdown. We also

 started using a new website called steps spelling. We used steps 

everyday for 20- 30 minutes. Every week was a different theme. We had 

themes like : Anzac, Animal Kingdom, World Famous, Story Time 

and Our World.  Check out one of my favourite tasks from Anzac weeks!

 My favourite priorities during lockdown would be Anzac
silhouette art, Anzac biscuit box, storytime book cover, six sentence story
and so much more!


Here is what the check in
looked like at the end of
week!

Overall lockdown was quite good! Thanks for reading! 

Week 6 Learning

Swimming Sports!

   The smell of chlorine in the building and tons of children everywhere. Oh no! My turn. We were all confident in ourselves and were ready to go. BEEP! that's the buzzer time to go! As I glided through the clear, pleasant water, I could overhear all the screaming and yelling from the benches. First two lengths done, another three more to go.

One more heat to go. As I got to to the end of the lane, I was full of joy because I was finally done! Then I realised I still have one more heat to go. AHH! Is this like a ongoing race or something? What's your favourite stroke? Do you like swimming? I do, kind of. Comment down below.

All of my races were finished. The first thing I got was my towel. I dashed to the changing room and got changed as fast as I could. All of Moana Syndicate met outside on the field. Next minute Koka Ngaire called my name for the role. We hopped on the bus and drove back to school. 

                                                                                First Weeks Back!

We've made an amazing start to this year. This last few weeks have been crazy! We've been doing Quickwrites, swimming, buzz groups, art pieces, road patrol refresher, weetbix tryathlon, we learnt all about Waitangi Day, We all got our chromebook licenses.We've learnt how to take care of our chromebooks (Kawa of Care) and so much more. 

In the first week we played People Bingo and we learnt more about each other. I think we're all getting the hang of how to work around here. 

The year 6's all get a opportunity to go surfing and learn more about it. And our school is very lucky because we are right opposite the beach. We also had Sonia Keepa come and tell the year 6's about ocean safety. 

 I think 2020 will be a great year filled with great opportunities and so much more.

DON'T FALL FOR FAKE
