Knitting

The Year 6's, 7's & 8's have been working on stitching for this whole week. We were all given a piece of material this big and we have to stitch things that represent us. When we are done, we will sew it all together and place it somewhere in our school.
This is what I have done so far.

Probability

For maths this term, we have been learning about probability. I've learnt a lot of things about probability, like that some of it involves 'chance.' Gambling has a lot to do with chance (and a bit of luck) and it has been our main learning for the past three weeks.

@ The New School

Aaliyah: 

My first week here was a bit difficult. I struggled to adjust to my new surroundings, like having to work with a larger group of children and all the new seating spaces. But the thing I find hardest to do here is having to call my classroom ‘Wairua Pakiki 4’ instead of just ‘Room 7’. Though there are a lot of things I miss about my old school, I think having this new building is a good change for us.
