Our Haiku Poems

Whaea Nin's Literacy group have been learning about poetry. 
To create these Haiku poems we needed to think really creatively and learn all about syllables!

The Wonderful Hub 8

On Friday we had a special Travelwise Mufti day. This meant we were challenged to wear traffic light colours to raise awareness about safe travel to and from school.

Here's some fantastic pictures of the hub dressed in our theme.




Also, well done to the following learners who represented the hub in assembly and presented their play to the entire school at assembly. They even remembered ALL of their lines! Fantastic work team.

Manaiakalani Film Festival 2016: Mad Science


Have you ever wanted a day off school, but you're not actually sick?

Well our mad scientist may have found the perfect solution for you... just remember DO NOT GET CAUGHT.....

This is our 2016 Manaiakalani Film Festival entry, we were a little in the learning pit about how we could do some of the effects, but thanks to the magic of green screen we were successful.

Art Inspritation



White Paper sculpture challenge

You may work with a partner or by yourself on this challenge.

Materials:
1 x square piece of paper (to make the box)
As many white strips of white paper as you like
Glue sticks
Hot glue gun if you want to use
Scissors

Step 1:
Create a box following this tutorial

Step 2:
Using the strips of white paper, create a sculptural piece of art inside the box.
Think of using the paper in different ways to make it look interesting (cut, fold, tear, curl, feather etc).
Glue these into your box to be displayed on the wall - so make sure they are glued in well and won’t fall out!

Have fun!
