This Term in Room 16 as part of Te Puawai the children had a chance to have a Noho Marae at Clendon Park School. What a great experience this was. The Tamariki learnt a lot from this experience. The year 3's and 4's from Room 16, 12 and 26 took part in this Noho Marae experience. The Tamariki learnt about Whanaungatanga and marae tikanga and kawa. The Tamariki had also been learning about Matariki in their classes so, as part of their Noho Marae and with the help of parent helpers, we had the great privilege to go to the Auckland Star Dome. It was so much fun!. The Tamariki enjoyed their bus trip on a double-decker bus and learnt a lot about Matariki from the Star Dome Educator.In class, as part of learning about Matariki the children in Room 16 learnt how to make a Matariki Star out of paper. It was such a great experience and the children were so proud of their stars when they had completed them. This was integrated into our maths lessons about patterns and rotations and tessellations.
