Art & Singing

Today we were working on creating our stars for our Matariki art. We were listening to music as we did our art. Miss Zeier recorded us singing as we worked. Matariki means the seven sisters or the eyes of God. This is when we remember out families who have died. In the olden days Maoir people looked at the stars and if they were shining bright that means it would be a good year for planting crops. What do you know about Matariki?

Term 2

This term is Term 2. We have now got four new people in our classroom. We had Scott and Tavita arrive from different schools. They are both very nice. They are different sizes but they are the same age. Scott is 8 and so is Tavita.      

Last week we had Curtis and Tevita join our class from Room 10. So now we have 2 children with the same name. We are going to call them Tavita T and Tevita E so they know which one we are talking to. 
All four new kids are boys. Welcome boys!

The Queen's Birthday

On Monday it was the Queen's birthday. We got a day off school. Me and my cousin made a birthday card for her. I hope she loved her birthday cake. It's nice to think about the Queens birthday. It would be so cool to see the Queen in London. We have never seen her in Auckland but I hope she can visit  us one day. I think she looks wonderful.
