Whanau Ako Nui

Some of our girls went to a futsal tournament today. It sounded like they had a great day.  Meanwhile at school the students enjoyed their te reo, reading, waiata, and kowaiau.  It's great to see our students working together so well. 

Last week was Cook Island Language Week. On Tuesday we got to work with our whole school and some visitors from the kindergarten to make an 'ei. Here are some pictures of our creations!

We have been doing a lot of collaborative work this year, and one thing we have learned is the importance of positive and effective communication. One of our special guests to our high tea, Kristan, shared with us why communication is vital in his work as a chef. See the video here!

We had a wonderful start to the term today. All of the students were well rested, focused, and looking forward to new experiences and learning. Here are some of our students enjoying their literacy learning and sharing their thinking with each other. Can't wait for an awesome term 3!

Wednesdays are PE days for Whanau Ako Nui. This term our PE is GOLF skills. We love the challenge of learning movement and control skills in a different sport. Check out our practice ...
