Week 5

 Week 5 (rima)

Talofa Kākano Whānau. 

This week is Samoan language week. Did you know that samoan is the third most spoken language in New Zealand.  


Another busy week in Kakano last week, on top of our normal week we also ran the Pentecost Liturgy.  We are so proud of how all our children participated in this. 

 


We have been donated a large amount of craft resources and the children have had loads of fun creating some amazing spider webs outside.  It was great to see the children working alongside each other to create this.  If someone got stuck in the web they would work together to get them free.

We also had a large amount of buttons and the children have been making their own jewellery.


If you are having a clear out at home and have anything you are disposing of please have a chat with one of the teachers, because your junk could be an amazing resource for the children.




The week ahead:

Monday - normal school day. Mrs Mines and Mrs Mareroa are away

Tuesday - normal school day. Mrs Mines and Mrs Mareroa are away

Wednesday - normal school day

Thursday - normal school day

Friday - sausage sizzle, juicy, library day


Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

Kākano Teachers - Mrs. Mines, Mrs. Mareroa, Mrs. Thomson, and Whaea Shayla.

  Kia Ora Kākano Whānau,  We have made it to the last week of term!! Last year, term one wasn’t so successful, as we had gone into lockdown after only 8 weeks. It has been a great term. All of the classes have settled well with their new teachers and we, the teachers, have loved getting to know all of the children and families. Thank you for your support during this term with various school and classroom events. Take a look at some of the photos from last week: We were lucky to Senior Constable Regan in to talk to the children about safety in the car. He talked about having the correct car seats in for the children as well as the importance of ALWAYS wearing your seatbelt. It is always great to have these community leaders come in and see the children for a casual chat so that the children know that these people are out there to help us. On Wednesday, some children will be selected to go to a Principal’s morning tea. There are only 3 children per class chosen each term. It is ...
