Ngå mihi nui

Geoff Wallis

Today we had a shared breakfast with all the year one students and their families. It was fantastic to see lots of parents socialising and getting to know one another. The children enjoyed eating their breakfast with their friends and performing a couple of short items. Thanks again for coming and for bringing such delicious food, the children ate very well!

Reading

I am learning to finger point to words as I read them.

Painting

Today Gemma painted this masterpiece. I was really impressed by how she filled up the whole page. Well done Gemma.

Hammer and nail

Gemma created this picture using the hammer and nail set. This activity is great for developing the children's fine motor skills
