Harold comes to visit!

Last week we were lucky enough to have Harold and Lauren come to visit us. We had two fantastic sessions, having Harold visit is always a highlight of the year!

In our first lesson we learnt about how we can have a growth mindset and that we can use the power of yet, I can't do this yet. If we develop a growth mindset this will help us to keep going even when things get tough.

Then in our second lesson we worked on thinking about what makes a good friend. What can we do to make sure that we are good friends? Afterwards we also had a dance party with Harold, what a fun few days. We can't wait to see Harold again!

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?
