Koanga Festival
On Saturday Shayden and Emily performed at the Koanga Festival.
I was so proud watching them sing and do their actions, they were awesome!
Ahakoa he iti he pounamu.

Matariki
Over the past week we have been learning about Matariki.
To celebrate Matariki today we learned to weave with harakeke (flax) with Room 7.
Before we began we discussed the tikanga when using harakeke and leaned a new karakia.
We have a few pieces each to take home and share.

Looking for Insects
Our buddies are learning about insects. They are very knowledgeable about insects and invited Room 1 on a 'Bug Hunt'. We had lots of fun together exploring Sunnyhills School for insects either up in the air, on trees or on the ground.

Toku Mihimihi - My Self Introduction
A mihimihi is a short greeting to introduce our self to other people in te reo Maori.
It is an important part of the process of meeting people for the first time.
Room 1 have been learning to write, read and present our own mihimihi in te reo Maori.
Our mihi includes where we come from, our nationality (iwi), mountain (maunga) and river (awa), school, age and name. We have worked collaboratively to help each other with our pronunciation and understanding.
To know who we are, we have to know where we come from.
