Art Exhibition - Have You Been Yet?

Down in the school hall this week you can experience the gorgeous artwork produced by everyone at Waikowhai! 

There are lots of different creatures to see, in all shapes and forms. 

Tuesday evening we had lots of visitors and entertainment on the piano by pupils and grown ups, thank you to all for making it a super evening!

Hurray, it closes on Friday!

We found ours!

Learning Fun with Te Waka Ako

Room 1 and Room 2 were lucky on Friday afternoon to have the students from Manukau and Hauraki come and share our learning.  

We made new backdrops and borders for the school corridor displays. The farmscape was a huge hit, with Ms Dimmock helping with colour choices. 

 Lots of fluffy sheep were made in Room 1, thank you for the help with cutting and sticking, big kids!

Watch out for the finished products in the main school corridor next term!

What's the design going to be?

Too big to be indoors!

Wacky Winter Warmers Day Friday, 8 June 2018

Celebrating our certificates after assembly today. We had a super dress up day to help raise funds to buy winter warming foods for our hampers. What a lot of super heroes we all are!

Buddy learning with the experts in Room 4

Today the sheep farmer experts in Room 4 came to help us with our questioning skills. 

We had to think of questions to ask and they could tell us from their reading book that's kept them busy all last week.

We did find a question though that they couldn't answer......

"How many teeth does a sheep have?"

We found the answer by googling it, it's 32 for a fully grown sheep!

Look! That's the clover that sheep love to eat!
