Sansa Kroma (again)

I've just reposted this as I think I had the video setting on Youtube as private and you couldn't actually see the video. I have made it unlisted so it should be seen from this link. If anyone tries to watch the video could you leave a comment to let us know if it works or not please.

Ms Megginson taught us a song that is sung by school children in Ghana. It is about a hawk losing it's parents and being left behind, it tells the children of Ghana that even if lose their parents other friends and family will always take care of them.

GO NEW ZEALAND!!!

We were excited to see Team New Zealand win the first race today. We had hoped to see Team New Zealand win the America's Cup but it was not to be. Hopefully it will happen tomorrow!

Gavin Hill - Duffy Hero

Today was our Duffy Hero Assembly and we were very lucky to have Gavin Hill, ex Bulldogs, Warriors and Kiwi player visiting with us. Gavin spoke to us about how important it is to read to help us achieve our dreams in life. We were lucky to be able to grab a photo with Gavin afterwards.

Room 5 Superheroes.

This morning Ms Megginson (our student teacher from Waikato University) took a group for drama. They had a story about superheroes which they used to create superhero characters. 

Mia makes a mean superhero!

Lukas is a superhero but Max looks like a disco dancer!

Kate must have some superhero powers surrounding her.

Mikara is Wahine Toa!
