Term 3 Art Project

We have been busy working all term on our contribution to the school art project - we started with draft pictures of 'Anything' pictures, then 'Present' pictures and finally 'Future' pictures. We then painted our 'Present' picture of us at school onto the wood panels that we spent an afternoon sanding, then oiling. We helped Whaea Alice with stripping the harakeke flax a few weeks ago, and she will be carefully hanging all of the panels with Steve in the next week so the Art can be unveiled on Thursday at a special dedication in the hall.

Our art journey!

Pre-schoolers come to visit Aranui Primary

On Friday, we hosted many local Aranui preschools for a Cultural Performance in the school hall. The Pasifika and Te Kakano group performed for all of us.

Welcome Lesley and Taurean!

This week we have two new students in our class.
Welcome to Lesley and Taurean. We love having you in Room 7.

Museum Trip

The junior school had a fantastic visit to the Canterbury Museum on Thursday.
We went there as part of our POGI (Programme of Guided Inquiry) Topic of 'We are who we are'. We have been talking about where we come from and what is special to us.
At the museum we spent time looking at treasures in the Discovery Room, exploring the museum and then having a lesson with the Museum Teacher, Anthony, about Maori Taonga (Treasures).
