Hi Everyone

I am so so proud of the all the children of  Room 16 who have learnt their mihi and karakia so early in the term!  The children have done so well that some were chosen to tautoko(help or support) other classes in the school both in the morning and end of school to help their classes learn the karakia..

A big thank you to the following children:

Andreas and Sanajan

Rajeev and Ian

Lily and Sophie

Stella and Lauren


He Karakia Timata

E te atua
Manakitia tenei hui
Awhinatia matou
I roto i o matou mahi
Ki te Wairua tapu
To matou Ariki

Amene

(a loose translation of this karakia is that we ae asking for blessings, help and support in our work (learning) for the day)


He Karakia Whakamutuenga

Kia tau kia tatou katoa
Te atawhai o to tatou
Ariki
A ihu Karaiti
Me te aroha o te Atua
Me te whiwhinga tahi tanga
Ki te Wairua Tapu

Amene

(a loose translation or purpose of this karakia is that we are giving thanks for the blessings,love and support that we have received and bring closure to our day/work (learning))


Well done Lily, Sophie, Andreas, Sanajan, Lauren, Stella, Rajeev and Ian.  Whaea is so proud of you!!!

Library Time

Every Monday morning we have our Library time.
We are learning to use the library correctly and effectively.
"It's really neat to read outside in the shade" said Kobi.

Unfortunately our Library time was interupted by a "fire alarm" drill.
