Well what a wonderful 2 weeks we have had during our Maori unit!  The children have all been learning many different aspects of Maori culture - language in Room 1, art in Room 12, weaving in Room 11 and rakau in Room 2.  We finished off this unit today with a hangi meal at lunchtime - Tandia and Reuben seemed to really enjoy their hangi meal :)

I was really impressed with the children's ability and timing when using the rakau.  Here they are ...

       

This week we begin an Olympics unit.  We will be following what is going on in Rio in class so if your child has any information/findings about these Olympics, please encourage them to bring it along so they can share it with the rest of us.

I hope you all have had wonderful weekend and I'll see you all on Monday.
