A big welcome to all our families and whanau who are looking at this blog. We hope that you enjoy the pictures that we put up over the following weeks allowing you all, near or far, to be part of our learning in Room 10
The year has got off to a great start with class routines getting established, friendships being made and the children talking about what their learning would look like for them over the next term. Our school theme for this year is from the Dr Seuss book Oh, The Places You'll Go!
On Tuesday the whole school took part in a Mihi Whakatkau to welcome new children and teachers to our school.Can you spot some of our Room 10 friends being welcomed by Matua Tom?
We have been on lots of walks around school to discover who is inside all the different buildings and also to take photos for our shared STOP! book to remind us of where the school boundaries are. Knowing where to stop will help to keep us safe at school.
We have learnt lots of class routines, including eating our morning tea together on our Room 10 deck, and how to be sun safe by wearing our hats outside.
We have been reading our books altogether so that we can help each other inside.....
...and outside the classroom.
We had a lovely surprise on Thursday when a very young visitor came to join in at mat time!!!!
Don't forget to share this blog with friends and family around the world and leave us a comment.
Wishing you all a safe and happy week.

What a great idea your blog is. Love your hats. They look so colourful. Children in the UK learn tricky words too.
