ArtSplash is on this Friday and Koraunui will rock the stage

Woohoo, Artsplash is on this Friday evening.

There are more than 100 Wellington regional primary schools participating.



I cannot wait until Friday night to see all the children performing at Artsplash!  The Pasifika and Kapa Haka groupd have been working so hard on their performances.  I am looking forward to an amazing night once again.

Think Boards for maths problem solving

In our problem of the day today we used a thinkboard to help us show our thinking.  The problem was one where we could use multiplication, doubling and halving or repeated addition.  The children used all of these strategies to work out ways to come up with the solution.

BP Technology Challenge

Last week Mrs C took two teams to the Hutt Valley BP Technology challenge.  They had to take their birdhouses and then build an unknown challenge while they were there.  Both our teams did really well and were wonderful representatives of our school.

This weeks technology challenge with Room 10

We had to make a tent that one of our team members could fit inside.  Most teams were successful in completing a tent but even if they didn't manage the final product, Whaea Chanelle and I are seeing a huge improvement in the teamwork of the children.  Ka pai to mahi tamariki!

Yoda comes to visit Koraunui School

 

Mrs Christenson’s pet sheep Milkshake died last week and now her lamb Yoda is being bottle fed.  Mrs C brought her to visit Room 6 on Friday.  She was very well behaved.

We liked having Yoda come to school and are hoping she gets to visit us again.
