Maori around the school

On Mondays Whaea Debbie comes into our class to help us to develop our Māori language with songs, games, stories and other language and cultural experiences. 
This week we learnt the names for some of the buildings in our school as we had a walk around the school.
You might like to use some of these names too.

Akomanga (classroom)



Papatākaro (playground)






Whare ako (learning centre)

 Whare pukapuka (library) 

Whare hui (hall)

Art Gallery Photos


The children all really enjoyed having a look around the Art Gallery and getting to make a clay beast yesterday.


You can see some of the things they did and saw in the photos below.
