“Safe Hands”

May 29th 2019 while our teachers were pounding the pavement on Queen St during the strike our Child Support and Admin Staff were pounding the chests of dummies in order to gain the the knowledge of how to try and save a life if need be.

Mr Humphris from St Johns was our tutor for the day and for most of our team it was the very first time we had ever done first aid.
Thank you for organising this workshop we found this to be very beneficial for us and our role within the school. Our team can confidently walk away from this knowing that our kids and our school are definitely….”In Safe Hands”



Mr Wright and Mr Hill to the rescue!!!

8-bit art and google slides

As part of the digital technology theme our children have been following, the class I am placed in was given a project to create and share online. They used a combination of 8-bit art and google slides to complete their animation. I decided to join our children's learning and give it a go.

Post by Miss Williams. Thank you!!

“On The Same Page”

WALT:  Manage my time wisely through a novel and tasks



Today I supported and worked alongside Izaiah in Room 5 with Mrs Ilaoa during reading time and Izaiah was given the task of reading the text : Lest we forget - by Jane Tolerton. This story is about Veterans and their experiences in the First World War.

 Izaiah started off quietly reading to himself and was looking more at the amount of words in the story rather than the actual story itself and seemed a little discouraged so I placed my device next to his to show him that we were pretty much in the same boat and that I had to read it too, he looked over to my screen and laughed and said “oh Miss you’re up to the same page as me”. It’s always a good feeling when someone is “on the same page” as you, that way you never feel like you’re doing it alone. By Miss Timmi
