Interschool Games Against Coastal Taranaki

Once again our students represented their school very well with everybody playing well as a team. We came away with some great results. Well done to our supporters and our wonderful coaches. You help make interschool games a very rewarding experience for everyone involved.

Puanga Activities

Room 7 and Room 5 students worked together to create a piece of art that reflected some information they found out about Puanga. The students had fun creating different art designs for kites as during the Maori New Year, kites are often flown. This is because the kite represents a connection between the Earth and heaven.

Rippa Rugby Champions

I am so proud of this team - the winners of the Year 5 & 6 Taranaki Rippa Rugby competition. They played their absolute best and made their coach, Mike, their teachers and their parents very proud.
Wellington here we come. Wahoo!

Teachers Vs Students Rippa Rugby

On Friday the teachers played an amazing game against the Year 7 and 8 students in a game of Rippa Rugby. All played well and the teachers came away with a good result!

QR Code Scavenger Hunt

Our Year 5 & 6 students really enjoyed using ipads to find QR codes located in secret locations around the school environment. Working in teams, once they found the codes, the students had to scan them with their ipads to reveal a question related to fractions and ratios. Well done to the winning team - a novel way to practise our maths skills.

Ratios

This week your homework focuses on ratios. If you are unsure about how to solve problems that involve ratios, copy and paste the link below and view the Maths Antics clip to help with your understanding.
