Me on the map of the world...
In Tautoru we have been working on out community writing which is centred around "Me on the Map". We started with me, my room, my community, my city and my country. We coloured our maps and then drew a line to where we come from!
We are Tautoru and Autahi from Worser Bay School. We are children in Years 0-3.

Animals in Danger
Scott's reading group have started a mini inquiry into endangered or extinct animals.
They have researched information and presented their finding as a poster

Volume and Capacity--we're exploring measurement again. This time looking at volume and capacity. Each group had to order their containers from holds the most to holds the least and they had to be able to justify their reasoning. One group measured each container using the smallest cup while another group compared by pouring the amount of water into another cup and seeing if the water overflowed.

The Big Shakeout and Emergency Evacuation
Drop, Cover and Hold |
The Big Shakeout and Emergency Evacuation is scheduled for: Thursday 15 October, 9.15 am and 2.30 pm
While we will take part in the earthquake drill at 9.15 am, this is a great opportunity to test our systems regarding emergency evacuation. This will be a bit of an unknown in reality.....
So, what will happen
- Parents will get a re
mi nder email and text from the school office at two different times of the day leading up to the 2.30pmpick up .
This will allow us to check these systems at our end and also for you to double check you haven't got a new mobile number or email address lately! - If you are unable to collect your child yourself, you will need to contact someone on your Emergency Contact List.
- Children will remain in
class spaces at 2.30 pm. - Staff will be at both school entrances with lists of children's names and nominated contacts who can pick the child/
ren up. (If wet, we will let you know where.) - Parents or their nominated contacts will see a staff member who will check the list and provide them with a WBS stamped piece of paper with the child's name on it.
- This piece of paper will be taken to a staff member who is with the children in the class space and only then will the child be ticked off and able to leave.
- We will keep ECAT (After School Care) children
here but please ensure you have returned your emergency contacts.
If a child is not collected by yourselves or a nominated emergency contact at 2.30pm, we will record this and follow up with you. As we are not sure how the system will work in reality, you may want to arrive from 2.15 pm so there isn't such a queue!
