2021 Whio Studio T10, T11, T12

The Huritini children were lucky enough to be part of a 'pilot' scooter safety program run by the Christchurch City Council and sponsored by Micro. They covered the '10 Golden Rules for Safer Scooter Riding' through fun and interactive games. The children came back buzzing from the sessions with lots to share back with their peers and teachers. 'I learned when cars come out of their driveways to get off my scooter quickly' - Quinn and Arya. 'I liked playing Sneak up Granny and learning how to stop safely' - Isla and Sami. They talked about safety equipment, the different parts of the scooter and how to use them properly,  keeping a safe distance around intersections and driveways and riding in the wet weather. Each child was given a certificate for their participation.

 We have had so much fun today during Open Door Friday. Check out what we have been up to below!

 

 

 This week at PMP we have been balancing, climbing, throwing, bouncing, hopping, sliding....and much, much more! 

 This week is Te Wiki o te Reo Māori - Māori Language Week.  The Whio tamariki have been enjoyed listening to and speaking lots of te reo Māori. We practiced talking about our feelings with the question: Kei te pēhea koe?   

 This term T10 have been loving their fortnightly Tuesday music lessons with Mrs Gillman.  This week they enjoyed making rainy day 4 beat rhythms using crotchet and quaver beats, inspired by the song "Rain Rain, Go Away".

We are so glad to be back at school. The children have had a smooth transition back after lockdown. It was lovely to spend the first couple of days reconnecting and enjoying time together.
