We have had a great first week in Tōtara with getting to know each other, learning the routines and our first session at Kaiapoi Borough School for technology. We held a meet the teacher evening for parents to come along and hear about how things work in Tōtara.
The children in both hubs have been working on"All About Me" activities.
In Tiwai West (Rooms 18,19 and 20) we have been doing some self portrait art to brighten up our walls and writing to our teachers about things we would like them to know about us.
At Technology we were put into 4 groups - Food, Hard materials, Textiles and Multi Materials. We will spend one term in each area creating and learning.
Week one has also seen the introduction of our new school wide 'Ruataniwha Rewards'. These are given out to children who are achieving our weekly goal or showing one of our school values. In Tōtara these can be traded in for prizes and each token also goes towards house points for the school.
Check out the photos below to see some of the cool things we have been doing at Technology!
