Celebrating Diwali

Celebrating Diwali

Last week, the people of India celebrated 'Diwali'. Diwali is the 'festival of lights'. Indian people celebrate the festival with sweets and special foods, as well as traditional music and dance. 

We were lucky to share the celebration with Harsirat from Wawata class last week. She performed an Indian dance for us, which we enjoyed very much. Some of us tried to copy the movements from watching her dancing. Her performance was even more special as she learned the dance moves by watching Youtube clips and created her own dance. 
We could clearly see she worked very hard matching her moves to the rhythm. 
Thank you, Harsirat!

Letter of the Week

This year we are doing phonics in our homerooms. Kiwi class looks at two letters and their matching sounds every week. Weka and Pukeko classes work together on one letter of the week. Each week we have a letter of the week wall where we display all the things we can find that begin with our letter of the week. Last week our letter was H and we had some fun having Harlin Haines wearing a hat on our h wall. Too cute not to share! This week our letter is J so get your thinking caps on Weka and Pukeko classes, what words do you know that start with J?
