A Sad Time

Our class heard about the tragedy in Christchurch
     and learnt about flags flying at half-mast.
Colourful cousins!

The colourful hearts we made were placed around our school flagpole.
We all wore bright colours on Friday 22nd March for 'Colour Day'.



Unicorn colour girls!
We are all friends.
We are thinking of everyone in Christchurch.



We made paper dolls to show that we value diversity, which is one of our school values.

After the minute's silence, we sang some waiata, then had our assembly around the flagpole.

Te Pihi Pirates!

Te Pihi class read a great shared story called 'The Pirate who said Please'. One of the students suggested we make a pirate ship in class by turning a table upside down! So we got to work and this is the result...
 

We had a pirate dress up day, had a treasure hunt, walked the plank in the school pool and talked real piratey! We all had so much fun that our pirate ship has sailed in our class for an extra week. Meanwhile we have learnt lots of words like plank, bow, stern, hull, deck, crow's nest and lookout.

"Where's me crew mateys?"

           
Work that's good enough to show Sir the Captain!

Sharing the treasure!

Ahoy there mateys!

Te Pihi children are still loving pirate dress-ups each day and doing their work on board the ship!
