A Visit from a NZ Olympic Ambassador - Alexis Pritchard

39 year old former NZ Olympic boxer came to Paparore School this morning. We learnt some important values from her talk this morning 

EXCELLENCE

FRIENDSHIP

RESPECT

Here are some ways we can show this: 

1. Never give up when you lose, go back and try again
2. Show respect for your opponent 
3. Always do your best in anything you do 
4. Be brave, even when you're scared or trying something new

TUAKANA/TEINA DAY!

 Our Learning Day with Te Manga

We spent a day in the whare with an older class.

We learnt titi torea or stick games.

Some siblings chose to work together...

... and they worked happily with one another.

The big kids helped us illustrate our poems.

We illustrated the legend of 'Rona and the Moon'

We all loved our tuakana/teina day and have made some new friends!
