Rapare 1 Pipiri

Thursday 1 June

Have fun Noah. Don't forget to take photos, and get ready to give us a talk about your adventure.

Tomorrow at 9.45 we have touch in the hall with a Nth Harbour coach, Sam, an old pupil of NPS!

Thanks to the writers of our cool story with a message. ( Too much junk food is not good for you or Caterpillars!)


















This week is Samoan Language week and we are trying to use some phrases. Api is helping with our pronunciation


Butterfly model



Our stunning class


Thanks to the musicians who played. Pippa got the top marks, distinction in her piano exam. Great!



What a great bunch of students!























We are writing information reports about an animal we have chosen. These are great web sites to find out facts. We then sort and classify these into groups. We then bullet point our ideas and put them under the correct subtitle. Ask about your childes chosen information report creature!

Komodo dragons, Galapagos tortoise are just a few of the titles.

Maths strand is Geometry this term.

Ramere 15 Hakihea Friday 15 December What a last fun week we have had. No doubt you will have heard about pool parties, "Go home, Stay Home" , Hampsterball, dodgeball and games such as "Wink murder," "Beat master,""Honey, if you love me then give me a kiss", and 2 truths and a lie". It has been a lovely week to enjoy each others company and have that end of school "feel good" factor. I've loved seeing past pupils and sharing your lovely children. They have been a wonderful class and i am sorry to see each and every one of them go onto bigger, brighter things! Have a wonderful, safe Christmas and treasure all those family moments.

You are our Athletic super star!

Raapa 2 Here-turi-koka Wednesday 2 August Today yoyos appeared at school. They are a great thing to teach the NED concept. Never give up, encourage others to stick at it and be determined to do your best. Spike bought in a different way to achieve these concepts. He is egg sitting "Jimmy". Emma read out her "Mysterious egg" story. Thanks Benji for holding it so she could use voices to explain who each character was. It was rated as a great narrative! Well done Emma! Reading today was "making connections" between two different texts. We had Mrs McKenzie come and watch us learn. We were stunning of course! We learnt that to make connections you had to link ideas together and to ask yourself , " I remember when.. My experience… It reminds me of something I heard or in a movie this happened...  I felt like the character when…. When I read about ….  A book I read was similar to this… I know that because of …&qu
