When you come to school on Monday, Mum or Dad, or Koro, Nanny, Aunty - whoever drops you off, will drop you off by the crossing.
Then Pippa, or Whaea Sheryl, or Mrs Bobsein, Mrs McKenzie, or Ms O'Neil, will take you across the road to the school gate.
Then you can walk bravely by yourself, and I will see you on the deck of Room 1!
Welcome to Room 1. We are a class of New Entrant and Year 1 learners in a play based learning environment. We enjoy sharing our learning and our experiences so please read our blog posts and don't forget to leave a comment or a question.

Mother's Day
This Sunday it is Mother's Day.
Think of something special you can do for your Mum.
It might be:
- make breakfast in bed
- make a card
- draw a special picture
- give Mum a massage
Here is a lovely story by Anthony Browne about My Mum.
Don't forget to take a photo and record what you do for your Mum.

Week 4 Level 3
Kia Ora all
Here are some activities I will be posting on seesaw this week:
1. Stick Man
Listen to the story Stick Man, by Julia Donaldson.
The man reading the book is Alex Scheffler, he is the illustrator of the story. Do you remember what an illustrator does? That's right, an illustrator draws the pictures of the story.
When you have finished listening to the story here is an activity to do.
listen here to Stick Man
2. Make a Stick Family
After listening to Stick Man, I thought it would be fun to make a stick family.
You don't need many things to do this, but the most important thing you need is sticks!
You can use any scraps of material or paper, glue, sellotape, or blu tak to stick things together.
Wool for hair, or string, even a piece of flax pulled apart to make string.
You can use a felt pen to draw a face.
When you have made your stick family, you can play games with them - going to the park, having dinner, going to bed.
Have fun!

Making a Raft
I saw this video of these girls making a raft to send a message across the water in Auckland.
What things do you think they had to think about when making their raft?
