Welcome To Term Two!

Day 1, Week 1, Term 2.   Wednesday 15 April.

Ata marie tamariki mā! Welcome back to 'school'! Crazy days, huh?! Who ever would have thought, when we started school in He Puna Tārei at the beginning of the year, that in just a few short weeks we would be a class of Homeschool kids and families?!

Grace, Hokie, Ollie and I all hope you are doing well in your bubbles. Funny aye... how the word 'bubble' has taken on a whole new meaning for all of us over the last few weeks!
I'd really love it if you could leave us a message here on the comment thread so we can all keep in touch and share some of what we have been up to. Watch this space!!

Here is a photo I took while Grace and our fur babies were out on our daily walk the other day. Hokie is getting old, so he gets a bit tired! He loves it when Grace carries him when we are out 'walking'! :D

The Māori name for the Maui dolphin is Popoto. Popoto means 'short' in reo Māori - a fitting name for the world's smallest dolphin, don't you think?!  Through their research, the children found out that there are only an estimated 55 Popoto alive today, rendering this taonga on the verge of extinction. The biggest threat to their survival comes from the practice of drag net fishing. The children are passionate about doing whatever they can do help Popoto so at present we are beginning to learn the structure of the persuasive writing genre so they can write to Minister of Fisheries, Stuart Nash, to ask him to outlaw fishing with nets in the Popoto habitat.

Follow our journey into the past where we 'speak of days gone by of New Zealand' - 'Kōrero o Ngā Rā o Mua o Aotearoa.' This learning has been inspired by 'Tuia 250' - the nationwide commemoration of the 250 year anniversary of James Cook's arrival, forever changing the landscape of our home. The children have been adding to the classroom TIMELINE and SLIDESHOW  (click on link to see slideshow) as we progress in our knowledge of Aotearoa from 1,000 years ago to present day...
