Making block graphs

For our maths topic Statistics, we have been learning about making graphs. In our table groups we were given a packet of M&Ms.  

We had to sort them into their colour groups and then count each in the group.

Then we made a block graph to show how many of each colour were in our packet. 

A fun start to 2024!

End of Year Trip!

 Ahipara Beach Fun!

Last Friday we set off in cars and a bus to have some end-of-year fun, as a reward for all our hard work this year! The four Junior classes went to Korora St Park for a play, ice-blocks and morning tea. Then we went to the beachfront to play in the sand and rockpools and have lunch. 

Everyone had a great time, had loads of fun and were perfectly behaved! Thank you so much to all our whanau who came to transport, help out and supervise!

Hangin'10!
