Tena koutou katoa. Nga mihi mahana ki a koe me to whanau hoki.

Ko Whaea Stevie ahau. Ko au te kaiako o te akomanga o Tumanako.  Currently we have 29 tamariki in our class, ranging from year 4-6 who are:

Proud of who they are and where they come from

Prepared for and ready to accept challenges

Learners now and in the future

Where we strive to uphold our school values to:

Be Considerate, Be Courteous, Be Cooperative and to use our Commonsense

Our door is always open and we welcome whanau to come along and watch, join in or help out throughout the day. You may notice some changes to how our class looks and works.

Here’s a sneak peek into our day...

Each Day begins with whole school karakia in the hall. Following this we return to our class for Literacy (Panui - Reading & Tuhituhi - Writing). During this time I will work with small groups, the rest of the class will be involved in hands-on activities related to our kaupapa. This term our kaupapa is Whanaungatanga.

After morning tea I will start working with small groups for Pangarau - Maths. Tamariki not working with the kaiako will be documenting their learning from the morning and then continuing on with their kaupapa mahi.

The afternoon session will be a reflection session, where tamariki will evaluate their mahi for the day and set goals for the next day.

We are a bilingual maori class so there is an expectation that the tamariki in this class will hear, use and learn more te reo than other classes. We have dedicated te reo learning sessions as well as using conversational te reo throughout the day.

What’s happening this term?

Timetable for Term 1
