Sky Tower Trip

Room 17's mission is to find out as much about the Sky Tower as they can before the school trip. Let's see if we can impress the Sky Tower experts with our knowledge! Talk about it at home with your parents they might know a lot too. Reminder if you haven't handed in your permission slip for the trip please do.

Matariki

Matariki is a time to enjoy being with our family and friends. It is a time to make plans for the future and forgive problems of the past. In Room 17 we are learning about the many stories of Matariki. 

Please post below if you have anything to share with us.

Animals!

For our speeches we have been researching and finding out lots of information about our chosen animal. It would be great if parents you could talk to your child about their animal as they are so passionate about them and are doing such an amazing job! If you would like to do some research at home here are some places you can go.
