Matariki Day Photos

These photos were taken on our Pt England School Matariki Day last Friday. The first photo is of some brave students from Kauri Flats School speaking at our assembly about the flounder project. Then there are some photos of one of our Matariki groups having shared kai. The last photo shows the exhausted kids in Room 24 at the end of the day!

Matariki Day

Last Friday, Pt England School celebrated Matariki with a tuakana teina day. Students worked on a variety of creative projects. One group made a movie about the story of Ranginui and Papatuanuku. They created, performed and recorded their own music, and told the story through sand art.

Here is the final product. Please leave us a comment!

Museum Trip

We have had a busy first week back together! In their last week with Miss Szymanik, Team 2 went to Auckland Museum to explore and learn about Matariki. They had an amazing time and shared what they did in recounts about the trip. Check out their individual blogs to read more about what they got up to!

Matariki

On Thursday we celebrated Matariki. Matariki is when we see seven stars in the sky. Team 2 went to the hall for Matariki activities. We had fun at the hall. In the hall we coloured in some stars and we learned how to use the poi.
