Open Door Friday



Today we enjoyed Open Door Friday. We danced, created, played and laughed alongside Ti Kouka.

The children were showing off their creativity by using straws, pipe cleaners, popsicle sticks and real materials in interesting ways. We also learnt how to use the cool glue gun as another method of sticking things together. 





We used white crayon and dye to create some artwork.


Some people practised cutting and folding to create these Easter baskets.

 Mrs O'Neil gave a tutorial on how to paint a flamingo! We listened carefully to her instructions and we were all so impressed with the result! We also learnt about how to use different brush strokes to create the look of feathers.

They have been challenging themselves to learn new skills and are all gaining confidence. We are all very proud of their efforts!

We hope you enjoy these photos of our first week at school! Thanks, Whio Teachers.
