We love the forest!

-

 The tamariki have been enjoying exploring the newly opened forest / ngahere area. We have been talking about how we can be kaitiaki / guardians of the forest.

I love the forest because there is this big rock that I can surf on. It is so fun also because I can play lots and lots of games. I can be kaitiaki by picking up rubbish and keeping safe the trees by not taking out the branches. I can also be kaitiaki by not digging out the dirt and roots. I feel happy.

I like the forest because of the sun because it lets the sun in through the leaves. I can help the forest by being gentle.

I like the forest because Lexi lets me chase her. I can be kaitiaki by being gentle with the leaves and not eating there.

I look after the forest by looking after the trees.

You are not allowed to dig.

You are not allowed to climb the trees.

You are not allowed to break the branches.

No rubbish in the forest.

 Today our children hosted the full school assembly. We had so much fun sharing our learning and especially our song mahunga, Pakihiwi, puku, hope, waewae (heads, shoulders, knees and toes).  Congratulations to our tamariki who received assembly certificates.  These are our awesome presenters.                                                                                                                                    These are the special tamariki who received certificates.

Firewise Visit from The NZ Fire Service

Today we were lucky enough to have 6 fire fighters from the Wigram Station come to school and share the Firewise programme with us. We all learnt some very important things-  Candles, matches and lighters are tools NOT toys (so are for grown ups only)  When the smoke alarm goes off we have to shout "Fire! Fire! Fire!" then we get down, get low, and get out.  Make sure your family has a safe meeting spot once you get out (the letterbox is a great choice). When you are asleep you cannot smell smoke- this makes smoke detectors essential.  We also got to see the fire truck and they explained all the special tools and equipment they have on board. The children got to ask lots of great questions and share some experiences too.
