Sunnyhills Celebrates Diwali

 Hi Whanau

Today we celebrated Diwali by dressing up in traditional clothes and having an assembly to learn more about the festival of lights. It was lovely to see so many students from Sunnyhills share where they came from and show us their costumes. 

Here are ours...

The Giant Walk

 Hi Friends and Whanau

Today we had an awesome (and tiring) time walking to the Snakes and Ladders park. The whole school came with us, we even had a police man called Pete and his dog called Jenga come too. 

Here are some photos: 

Have a wonderful weekend!

Te Wiki O Te Reo Maori - Maori Language Week

Yesterday we started to celebrate Maori Language week. We have been learning how to say Ke Te Pehea Koe? How are you? with Miss Strydom. And we were also super lucky to see Mrs Harding who taught us some new words in Te Reo like Te Ra (sun) and Marama (moon). 

What have you been doing to celebrate Te Wiki O Te Reo Maori?

I hope you are having an excellent morning! Today I challenge you to have a look at our GEMS page from the Distance Learning Slides. There is an activity for the GROWTH GEM all about being an inventor. An inventor is someone who creates something new. I wonder what you will create?

Neverland Studios and Buddies

Wow what a week we have had! So full of exciting activities and fun learning experiences.

We were so lucky on Monday to have had Giselle from Neverland Studios come and teach us a small hip hop dance. It was so much fun to practise and then perform to each other.

Here is a video of our dance. Aren't we great!

On Friday we were extremely excited to see our buddies again. Our big year six buddies from Room 2 came to our class and we had a colouring in competition!

Good Morning Room 22

We are getting closer and closer to go back to school. I hope you are all excited! I will be going into school on Friday to make sure our class is all ready for us when we all come in on Monday.

When we come back to school you will all have your own desk and chair to sit at and your own place to put your school bag. You will also need to have a clean tin or pencil case to put some pencils in that only you will be using.

Today I have not set a learning challenge. I want you to blow me away with whatever learning activity you choose to do. I can't wait to see what it is that you have chosen.



Have a wonderful day!

Yesterday Jacinda Ardern announced that we will all get to go back to school next week on Monday. I hope your excited, I know I am.

We have our Google Meet sessions this morning at 10:00-10:30am and 10:30-11:00am with Frida, Emme, Ava, William and Jackson H sharing in the first session, and Carl, Jerry, Kayden and Kiyaan sharing in the second session. I wonder what news they will share with us?

Today your learning challenge is from our Maths slide on our distance learning slideshow. We are going to make paper chains. I wonder how long you can make yours? How many pieces of paper do you think you will use? Can you hang it around your home? Can you use it to measure things around your home?




If your not sure how to make a paper chain check out these instructions from wikihow.com

Have a great day.

Good Morning Room 22

It has been wonderful seeing some of your beautiful faces on our Google Meets and hearing all about your news. You have all had exciting things to share and have done a great job asking and answering questions of each other.

Today I challenge you to be CURIOUS. Let's use our growth GEM and find out how many steps it takes to walk around our houses. I wonder how many steps it will take me to walk around my house? When I find out, I will put the answer in the comments below.




Don't forget to keep sending me pictures and videos of your learning. It is amazing to see you all be creative and do different things to keep your brain and your GEMS growing.

Thank you to all of the students who sent me through pictures of your beautiful koru art. You have all worked hard and thought about the size, shape and colours of you koru. Some of you even added in some cool patterns. Great Job!

Your learning challenge today is from our  maths slide on our distance learning slideshow, It's to set up a pretend shop. You can sell whatever you like! As a shop keeper you will need to think about what to sell, how much money it will cost your customers and how you will count your money. Have fun!




Don't forget, I will be sending your mummies and daddies a link to enter the video meeting 10 minutes before the first session begins at 10:00am and this link can also be used to access the second session at 10:30am.

I hope to see you soon in our Google Meets. Have an awesome day!

Happy Monday morning! I hope you all had a lovely weekend. Tell me about one thing you enjoyed doing on the weekend in the comments below (don't forget to add your name).

This morning I challenge you to work on your fine motor skills by sketching and drawing some koru. This is on the Te Reo Maori slide from our Distance Learning slideshow. You can even do one for each member of your family like this:

Tomorrow we start our first two Google Meet sessions. One at 10:00-10:30am and the second one at 10:30-11:00am. Some children have been invited to share some of their learning or something special to them. I wonder what they will share.

Check out this do's and don't's poster to make sure we are all doing the right thing on the video meetings.


I hope you have a wonderful day.
