This year, we have implemented Tōtara time. Students opt into an activity that interests them. Once they've signed up, they will stay in this group for 4 Fridays and then they get the opportunity to choose a different activity for the next block.
To earn Tōtara time, students need to complete all their weekly tasks. Anyone who hasn't done this will complete their work during Tōtara time.
These students had a great time making slime during the science option at Tōtara Time...
The mighty Tōtara tree stands tall and proud. It protects those smaller than itself. In ancient times it was used to build waka that carried hundreds of warriors and build whare to protect people from the earths elements. As the team gifted with the name tōtara, we take on much of it’s meaning. We protect those who are younger than us and we support others by encouraging them, and being active role models in our kura. We are the leaders of KNS.
