Cross Country


Room 17 have been trying their hardest during our cross country practise. Take a look! Parents please remember your child will need a spare change of clothes and shoes on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday for our practises.







Auckland Museum Trip

Here are some photos from our Maori school trip. We learnt about the myths and legends, cultures and traditions of the Maori people. It was very interesting to learn about the different meanings behind carvings, weavings and paintings. 

Thank you to all our amazing Room 17 parent helpers!

Cultural Day

On cultural day we were able to celebrate all the different countries that we come from at Pinehill School. We were able to share our own values, traditions and beliefs. Room 17 enjoyed learning about others and countries around the world.

Matariki is important to New Zealand as it celebrates the Maori New Year. This happens every year in June. We learnt a song about Matariki




Can you guess what song this is?

Multiplication and Division

In Room 17 we have been learning to use repeated addition as a way of multiplying.

            Division can be used once we know how many sets are in a times table. Have a look at our                   pictures.



Breakers Basketball

Recently Room 17 have been learning basketball from a Breakers Coach. Check out our photos!
